How have our conceptions of truth been shaped by romantic
literature? This question lies at the heart of this examination of
the concept of truth both in romantic writing and in modern
criticism. The romantic idea of truth has long been depicted as
aesthetic, imaginative and ideal. Tim Milnes challenges this
picture, demonstrating a pragmatic strain in the writing of Keats,
Shelley and Coleridge in particular, that bears a close resemblance
to the theories of modern pragmatist thinkers such as Donald
Davidson and Jurgen Habermas. Romantic pragmatism, Milnes argues,
was in turn influenced by recent developments within linguistic
empiricism. This book will be of interest to readers of romantic
literature, but also to philosophers, literary theorists, and
intellectual historians.
