The best way to learn about Romantic poetry is to plunge in and
read a few Romantic poems. This book guides the new reader through
this experience, focusing on canonical authors - Wordsworth,
Coleridge, Byron, Keats, Blake and Shelley - whilst also including
less familiar figures as well. Each chapter explains the history
and development of a genre or sets out an important context for the
poetry, with a wealth of practical examples. Michael Ferber
emphasizes connections between poets as they responded to each
other and to great literary, social and historical changes around
them. A unique appendix resolves most difficulties new readers of
works from this period might face: unfamiliar words, unusual word
order, the subjunctive mood and meter. This enjoyable and
stimulating book is an ideal introduction to some of the most
powerful and pleasing poems in the English language, written in one
of the greatest periods in English poetry.
