A study of the poetry of Hardy, Yeats, and Larkin in relation to
their shared preoccupation with time, change, and loss, the most
ancient and fertile theme in lyric and reflective verse, known to
earlier English poets as mutability. Though the importance of the
socio-political and ideological context is in every case
acknowledged, the literary-history context is viewed as primary:
hence the introductory survey of foundational Renaissance and
Romantic poets with whose work Hardy, Yeats, and Larkin were
thoroughly familiar. Although a preoccupation with the subject of
time and change in the work of these three poets is a critical
commonplace, no one has ever isolated it for special attention, or
used it to link them either together or with their historical
predecessors. This is an entirely new approach to their work. The
critical methodology employed is evidential and analytical rather
than theoretical, focussed throughout on the meaning and the mood
of each poem and the distinctive individuality of each poet.
