Romantic Poetry
Rutgers University Press (Verlag)
978-0-8135-2010-0 (ISBN)
This anthology fills the need for a comprehensive, up-to-date collection of the most important contemporary writings on the English romantic poets. During the 1980s, many theoretical innovations in literary study swept academic criticism. Many of these approaches--from deconstructive, new historicist, and feminist perspectives--used romantic texts as primary examples and altered radically the ways in which we read. Other major changes have occurred in textual studies, dramatically transforming the works of these poets. The world of English romantic poetry has certainly changed, and Romantic Poetry keeps pace with those changes. Karl Kroeber and Gene W. Ruoff have organized the book by poet--Blake, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron, Shelly, and Keats--and have included essays representative of key critical approaches to each poet's work. In addition to their excellent general introduction, the editors have provided brief, helpful forewords to each essay, showing how it reflects current approaches to its subject. The book also has an extensive bibliography sure to serve as an important research aid. Students on all levels will find this book invaluable.
Karl Kroeber is Mellon Professor of the Humanities at Columbia University and the author of Retelling/Rereading: The Fate of Storytelling in Modern Times (Rutgers University Press) and other books. Gene W. Ruoff is the director of the Institute for the Humanities and a professor of English at the University of Illinois at Chicago. He is the author of Wordsworth and Coleridge: The Making of Major Lyrics, 1802-1804 (Rutgers University Press) and other books.
