"David Stewart's The Form of Poetry in the 1820s and 1830s answers a real need: a comprehensive study, as well as survey, of the large number of poets once either obscure or dismissed as rubbish. ... The result in this work is a tour-de-force of research-not only of unearthing less well-known voices, but of interpreting them through a coherent lens." (James Najarian, European Romantic Review, Vol. 30 (4), 2019)
"This thoroughly engaging book shows how literary posterity's awkward burden of 'rescuing' poets like Beddoes, Clare, Darley, and Landon from their perceived obscurity can be transformed into an illuminating discourse of doubt and self-awareness. Stewart helps us to see in these poets' exquisitely accomplished writing a questioning of the present moment, even as it unfolds and takes flight." (Michael Bradshaw, John Clare Society Journal, Issue 37, June, 2018)
