Book synopsis

Wordsworth and Coleridge: Promising Losses assembles essays spanning the last thirty years, including a selection of Peter Larkin's original verse, with the concept of promise and loss serving as the uniting narrative thread. Interpreting the ways Wordsworth and Coleridge used the resources of imagination at crucial moments in their creative lives, this book reveals how they struggled to assimilate the intricacies of Romantic vision preoccupying their contemporary writers and critics. Ultimately, the essays here demonstrate that these two major poets are able to inject fresh cross-currents of their own into the anti-canonical swell and furnish a poetics of Romantic promise.
