Rock and Romanticism: Blake, Wordsworth, and Rock from Dylan to U2
is an edited anthology that seeks to explain just how rock and roll
is a Romantic phenomenon that sheds light, retrospectively, on what
literary Romanticism was at its different points of origin and on
what it has become in the present. This anthology allows Byron and
Wollstonecraft to speak back to contemporary theories of
Romanticism through Bob Dylan and the Rolling Stones. Relying on
Loewy and Sayre's Romanticism Against the Tide of Modernity, it
explores how hostility, loss, and longing for unity are
particularly appropriate terms for classic rock as well as the
origins of these emotions. In essays ranging from Bob Dylan to
Blackberry Smoke, this work examines how rock and roll expands,
interprets, restates, interrogates, and conflicts with literary
Romanticism, all the while understanding that as a term "rock and
roll" in reference to popular music from the late 1940s through the
early 2000s is every bit as contradictory and difficult to define
as the word Romanticism itself.
