Lyric and Labour in the Romantic Tradition, first published in
1998, examines the legacy of Romantic poetics in the poetry
produced in political movements during the nineteenth century. It
argues that a communitarian tradition of poetry extending from the
1790s to the 1890s learned from and incorporated elements of
Romantic lyricism, and produced an ongoing and self-conscious
tradition of radical poetics. Showing how romantic lyricism arose
as an engagement between the forces of reason and custom, Anne
Janowitz examines the ways in which this Romantic dialectic
infected the writings of political poets from Thomas Spence to
William Morris. The book includes new readings of familiar Romantic
poets including Wordsworth and Shelley, and investigates the range
of poetic genres in the 1790s. In the case studies which follow, it
examines relatively unknown Chartist and Republican poets such as
Ernest Jones and W. J. Linton, showing their affiliation to the
Romantic tradition, and making the case for the persistence of
Romantic problematics in radical political culture.
