T S ELIOT & THE ROMANTIC CRITICAL TRADIT

Omtale

Edward Lobbs study, first published in 1981, is a thorough examination of Eliots relation to Romantic criticism. This title also makes extensive use of Eliots Clark Lectures on metaphysical poetry. Delivered in 1926, the lectures complete the picture of literary history set out in Eliots published work, and are, the author believes, essential to a full understanding of the poets ideas and their place in tradition. Drawing on a wide variety of primary sources and earlier scholarship, T. S. Eliot and the Romantic Critical Tradition will be of interest to students of literature.
