This book offers a fresh understanding of the role of aesthetics in
Wordsworth's major poetry and prose. Arguing that Wordsworth
presents sublimity and beauty as strata in the mind's aesthetic
retrieval, Professor Kelley's 1988 text proposes geological
precedents for this aesthetic model and evaluates its differences
from the models developed by Burke, Kant and Hegel. This study
sheds light on Wordworth and Romanticism in several ways. It
establishes key differences between his aesthetics and that of
Burke, Kant and other predecessors; it offers an insightful
understanding of the aesthetic nature of Wordsworth's poetic
achievement; and it grounds its close, rhetorical analysis of texts
and figures in relevant historical and political contexts.
