The Collected Poems of Henry Kirke White
Author: Tim Fulford
Publisher: Liverpool University Press
ISBN: 1802075577
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 568
Book Description
This book is the first-ever scholarly edition of one of the bestselling and most revered poets in the nineteenth century—a poet excluded from the canon by twentieth-century critics. A poor youth who died early from tuberculosis, Kirke White shaped the popular image of the Romantic artist as a young rebel against convention who is too sensitive to survive in the harsh commercial world. As a prodigy who made his incipient death the subject of his tragic poetry, he was influential on both sides of the Atlantic—on Keats, Byron, Shelley, Browning, Emerson and Bryant. The edition restores his powerful, macabre and prophetic verse to attention, and also demonstrates his variety and range. It includes a comprehensive introduction discussing the creation of his public image, the marketing of his poetry, and the impacts he made on nineteenth-century poetry, on labouring-class writing and on publishing history.

The Oxford Handbook of British Romanticism
Author: David Duff
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0191019704
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 817
Book Description
The Oxford Handbook of British Romanticism offers a comprehensive guide to the literature and thought of the Romantic period, and an overview of the latest research on this topic. Written by a team of international experts, the Handbook analyses all aspects of the Romantic movement, pinpointing its different historical phases and analysing the intellectual and political currents which shaped them. It gives particular attention to devolutionary trends, exploring the English, Scottish, Welsh, and Irish strands in 'British' Romanticism and assessing the impact of the constitutional changes that brought into being the 'United Kingdom' at a time of revolutionary turbulence and international conflict. It also gives extensive coverage to the publishing and reception history of Romantic writing, highlighting the role of readers, reviewers, publishers, and institutions in shaping Romantic literary culture and transmitting its ideas and values. Divided into ten sections, each containing four or five chapters, the Handbook covers key themes and concepts in Romantic studies as well as less chartered topics such as freedom of speech, literature and drugs, Romantic oratory, and literary uses of dialect. All the major male and female Romantic authors are included along with numerous lesser-known writers, the emphasis throughout being on the diversity of Romantic writing and the complexities and internal divisions of the culture that sustained it. The volume strikes a balance between familiarity and novelty to provide an accessible guide to current thinking and a conceptual reorganization of this fast-moving field.

The Industrial Muse
Author: Martha Vicinus
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040087590
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
First published in 1974, The Industrial Muse is a study of the literary achievements of the working class. The focus is upon the cultural environment and assumptions of self-educated writers, their literary preoccupations and careers, and the content, form and structure of their writings. This literature must first be considered from the perspective of the working people who read and wrote it, for it functioned in their lives in a number of important ways. Its character was due in large part to the conscious efforts of educated workers who wish to gain cultural recognition along with social and economic justice. It helped to shape individual and class consciousness by giving order to working men's lives and clarifying their relationship with those who held cultural and political power. This literature asserted the autonomy of the working class, but did not posit a new worldview, lest the gains of class solidarity be lost irretrievably. This is an interesting read for scholars and researchers of working-class literature, english literature and working-class history.
