Book Description
This book situates John Clare's long, prolific but often badly neglected literary life within the wider cultural histories of the Regency and earlier Victorian periods. The first half considers the construction of the Regency peasant-poet and how Clare performed this role on stages such as the London Magazine. It also looks at the way in which it went out of fashion as Regency mentalities were replaced by early Victorian ones. The second half recreates asylum culture and places Clare's performances as Regency boxers and Lord Byron within this bleak new world.

The Victorian Working-class Writer
Author: Owen R. Ashton
Publisher: Burns & Oates
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
A detailed study of working-class writers in the period 1830-70, writers such as Thomas Cooper, Thomas Miller, Charles Mackay, William Thom and William and Mary Howitt, whose work appeared in journals such as Douglas Jerrold's Shilling Magazine and Howitt's Journal, this text examines the struggles of Victorian novelists and poets. It looks at how they found publishers and got into print, their readership and the view of the literary establishment.
