Download or read book Coleridge s Political Poetics written by Jacob Lloyd and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2023-11-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s engagement with ‘Whig poetry’: a tradition of verse from the eighteenth century which celebrated the political and constitutional arrangements of Britain as guaranteeing liberty. It argues that, during the 1790s, Coleridge was able to articulate radical ideas under the cover of widely accepted principles through his references to this poetry. He positioned his poetry within a mainstream discourse, even as he favoured radical social change. Jacob Lloyd argues that the poets Mark Akenside, William Lisle Bowles, and William Cowper each provided Coleridge with a kind of Whig poetics to which he responded. When these references are understood, much of Coleridge’s work which seems purely personal or imaginative gains a political dimension. In addition, Lloyd reassess Coleridge’s relationship with Thomas Percy’s Reliques of Ancient English Poetry, to provide an original, political reading of ‘The Rime of the Ancyent Marinere’. This book revises our understanding of the political and poetic development of a major poet and, in doing so, provides a new model for the origins of British Romanticism more broadly

Download or read book Romantics and Renegades written by C. Mahoney and published by Springer. This book was released on 2002-11-15 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Romantics and Renegades examines the abiding crux of romantic criticism: the political apostasies of the Lake poets (Wordsworth, Coleridge, and Southey) as they renounced the revolutionary Jacobinism of their youth in the 1790s in order to claim the high ground of Regency Toryism in the 1810s. Central to this scandal is the figure of William Hazlitt, the literary critic who policed their betrayals in his vigilant exposure of their political and poetical inconsistencies. Mahoney's analysis provides new insight into this abiding critical riddle through close historical and figural readings of the rhetoric of romantic apostasy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing their early poetry during the 1790s, a decade of European revolution, Coleridge, Wordsworth and their friends have always been thought of as 'the First-Generation Romantics'. This book challenges that concept by viewing them from an entirely new perspective as poets who were continuing an eighteenth-century 'organic' tradition.
Download or read book Landscape Liberty and Authority written by Tim Fulford and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-06-28 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eighteenth-century landscape description formed part of a larger debate over the nature of liberty and authority which was vital to a Britain newly defining its nationhood in a period of growing imperial power and rapid economic change. Tim Fulford examines landscape description in the writings of Thomson, Cowper, Johnson, Gilpin, Repton, Wordsworth, Coleridge and others, revealing tensions that arose as writers struggled for authority over the public sphere and sought to redefine the nature of that authority. In his investigation of poetry and political and aesthetic writing, Dr Fulford throws light on the legacy of Commonwealth and Country-party ideas of liberty. Also discussed are the significance of the Miltonic sublime, the politics of the picturesque and the post-colonial encounter of the Scottish tour. Dr Fulford goes on to show how the early radicalism and later conservatism of Wordsworth and Coleridge were shaped, in part, by eighteenth-century literary political and literary authorities. His study offers an understanding of literary and political influence that cuts across conventional periodization, finding new links between the early eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

Download or read book Coleridge written by Katharine Cooke and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-06-17 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1979, this book provides thorough a guide through Coleridge’s diverse body of work, looking not just his poetry but also his literary criticism and theories, plays, political journalism and theory, and writings on religion and philosophy. The author is careful to avoid emphasising one aspect of his work over another and consequently the whole emerges as a richer, more complete body of thought — less esoteric and more concerned with the world. It challenges the notion of the ‘damaged archangel’, showing he was a successful playwright, long-standing contributor to one of the foremost papers of the day and a literary figure of note in touch with leading thinkers and writers.

Download or read book Selected Poetry written by Samuel Taylor Coleridge and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1997 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a radical young poet in the years following the French Revolution, Coleridge collaborated with Wordsworth in Lyrical Ballads (1798) and was by turns dramatist, political journalist, lecturer, and religious thinker. This edition includes his two most famous poems, Kubla Khan and The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, as well as such blank-verse 'conversation' poems as The Eolian Harp, This Lime Tree Bower My Prison, and Frost at Midnight. Not least of the attractions of Heather Jackson's selection is the earlier version of the Rime which she presents in full, along with the later, better-known version. Demonstrating the diversity characteristic of Coleridge's work, from early politically-inspired sonnets to an epitaph he composed for himself shortly before his death, this substantial collection is supplemented by an introduction and notes.
