Through an incisive analysis of the emerging debates surrounding
urbanization in the Romantic period, together with close readings
of poets including William Blake, William Wordsworth and Samuel
Taylor Coleridge, Stephen Tedeschi explores the notion that the
Romantic poets criticized the historical form that the process of
urbanization had taken, rather than urbanization itself. The works
of the Romantic poets are popularly considered in a rural context
and often understood as hostile to urbanization - one of the most
profound social transformations of the era. By focusing on the
urban aspects of such writing, Tedeschi re-orientates the
relationship between urbanization and English Romantic poetry to
deliver a study that discovers how the Romantic poets examined not
only the influence of urbanization on poetry but also how poetry
might help to reshape the form that urbanization could take.
