Written in an age of revolutions, Lyrical Ballads represents a
radical new way of thinking - not only about literature but also
about our fundamental perceptions of the world. The poetry of
Wordsworth and Coleridge continues to be among the most appealing
and challenging in the rich tradition of English Literature; and
Lyrical Ballads, composed at the height of the young authors'
creative powers, is now widely acclaimed as a landmark in literary
history. In this lively study, detailed analysis of individual
poems is closely grounded in the literary, political and historical
contexts in which Lyrical Ballads was first conceived, realised and
subsequently expanded into two volumes. John Blades examines poetry
from both volumes and carefully reassesses the poems in the light
of Wordsworth's and Coleridge's revolutionary theories, while Part
II of the study broadens the discussion by tracing the critical
history of Lyrical Ballads over the two centuries since its first
publication. Providing students with the critical and analytical
skills with which to approach the poems, and offering guidance on
further study, this stimulating book is essential reading.
