This book provides a lively exploration of the way in which several
of the major British Romantic poets confront the writing and
theorising of poetry. The question 'What is a poet?' is asked and
answered with great frequency and variety; invariably there is an
underlying sense of unease, often in the shadow, as it were, of
Wordsworth's lines: We poets in our youth begin in gladness;/ But
thereof comes in the end despondency and madness . The apparent
confidence of the manifestoes is undermined by the self-doubts of
much of the poetry, ranging from Coleridge to John Clare.
