Beginning with a reassessment of contemporary romantic studies,
this book provides a modern critical comparison of Keats and
Shelley. The study offers detailed close readings of a variety of
literary genres (including the romance, lyric, elegy and literary
fragment) adopted by Keats and Shelley to explore their poetic
treatment of self and form. The poetic careers of Keats and Shelley
embrace a tragic affirmation of those darker elements latent in the
earlier writings to meditate on their own posthumous reception and
reputation. Fresh readings of Keats and Shelley show how they
conceive of the self as fictional and anticipate Nietzsche's modern
theories of subjectivity. Nietzsche's conception of the subject as
a site of conflicting fictions usefully measures this emergent
sense of poetic self and form in Keats and Shelley. This
Nietzschean perspective enriches our appreciation of the
considerable artistic achievement of these two significant
second-generation romantic poets.
