Book Synopsis Writing the Poetry of Place in Britain, 1700–1807 by : Elizabeth R. Napier
Download or read book Writing the Poetry of Place in Britain, 1700–1807 written by Elizabeth R. Napier and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the intrusion, often inadvertent, of personal voice into the poetry of landscape in Britain, 1700– 1807. It argues that strong conventions, such as those that inhere in topographical verse of the period, invite original poets to overstep those bounds while also shielding them from the repercussions of self-expression. Working under cover of convention in this manner and because for many of these poets place is tied in significant ways to personal history, poets of place may launch unexpected explorations into memory, personhood, and the workings of consciousness. This book thus supplements past, largely political, readings of landscape poetry, turning to questions of self-articulation and self-expression in order to argue that the autobiographical impulse is a distinctive and innovative feature of much great eighteenth-century poetry of place. Among the poets under examination are Pope, Thomson, Duck, Gray, Goldsmith, Crabbe, Cowper, Smith, and Wordsworth.

Book Synopsis Pope’s Mythologies by : A.D. Cousins
Download or read book Pope’s Mythologies written by A.D. Cousins and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-05 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the first to discuss the canon of Pope’s verse in relation to Early British Enlightenment thinking about mythology and mythography. Pope did not merely use classical (along with non-classical) mythology in his verse as a traditional, richly diverse medium through which to represent the diversity of private and civic life in his day, but he was an ambitious translator as well as refashioner of myth. It is a medium that he shapes anew and variously across all his major poems. This volume enhances appreciation of myth as a mode of apprehension as well as expression throughout Pope’s verse. In doing so it illuminates how, in early eighteenth-century Britain, understandings of what myth is and what it does were taking new directions – not least in response to Baconian thought and its legacy.
Book Synopsis Samuel Johnson and the Powers of Friendship by : A. D. Cousins
Download or read book Samuel Johnson and the Powers of Friendship written by A. D. Cousins and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first to assess Johnson’s diverse insights into friendship—that is to say, his profound as well as widely ranging appreciation of it—over the course of his long literary career. It examines his engagements with ancient philosophies of friendship and with subsequent reformulations of or departures from that diverse inheritance. The volume explores and illuminates Johnson’s understanding of friendship in the private and public spheres—in particular, friendship’s therapeutic amelioration of personal experience and transformative impact upon civil life. Doing so, it considers both his portrayals of interaction with his friends and his more overtly fictional representations of friendship across the many genres in which he wrote. It presents at once an original re-assessment of Johnson’s writings and new interpretations of friendship as an element of civility in mid-eighteenth-century British culture.

Book Synopsis Romantic Literary Families by : S. Krawczyk
Download or read book Romantic Literary Families written by S. Krawczyk and published by Springer. This book was released on 2009-07-20 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late eighteenth century witnessed the emergence of the literary family: a collaborative kinship network of family and friends that, by the end of the century, displayed characteristics of a nascent corporation. This book examines different models of collaboration within English literary families during the period 1760-1820. Beginning with the sibling model of Anna Barbauld and John Aikin, and concluding with the intergenerational model presented by the Godwins and the Shelleys, this study traces the conflict and cooperation that developed within and among literary families as they sought to leave their legacies on the English world of letters.
Book Synopsis Gender, Taste, and Material Culture in Britain and North America, 1700-1830 by : John Styles
Download or read book Gender, Taste, and Material Culture in Britain and North America, 1700-1830 written by John Styles and published by Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art. This book was released on 2006 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1700 and 1830, men and women in the English-speaking territories framing the Atlantic gained unprecedented access to material things. The British Atlantic was an empire of goods, held together not just by political authority and a common language, but by a shared material culture nourished by constant flows of commodities. Diets expanded to include exotic luxuries such as tea and sugar, the fruits of mercantile and colonial expansion. Homes were furnished with novel goods, like clocks and earthenware teapots, the products of British industrial ingenuity. This groundbreaking book compares these developments in Britain and North America, bringing together a multi-disciplinary group of scholars to consider basic questions about women, men, and objects in these regions. In asking who did the shopping, how things were used, and why they became the subject of political dispute, the essays show the profound significance of everyday objects in the eighteenth-century Atlantic world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a study of lyric poetry, in English, from the early modern period to the present, this book explores one of the most ancient and significant art forms in Western culture as it emerges in its various modern incarnations. Combining a much-needed historicisation of the concept of lyric with an aesthetic and formal focus, this collaboration of period-specialists offers a new cross-historical approach. Through eleven chapters, spanning more than four centuries, the book provides readers with both a genealogical framework for the understanding of lyric poetry within any particular period, and a necessary context for more general discussion of the nature of genre.
