Robert Southey : a life
by Mark Storey
(
Book
)
3 editions published in 1997 in English and held by 526 libraries worldwide Robert Southey was a figure of major importance on the literary and political scene from the 1790s until his death in 1843. He lived through the French Revolution, the Napoleonic wars, the dawn of the industrial age and the coronation of Queen Victoria, was the contemporary and friend of Coleridge and Wordsworth, admired and vilified by Byron and Hazlitt, the foremost man of letters of his day. Yet so far has his reputation been eclipsed by that of his better-known peers that even the correct pronunciation of his name (to rhyme with 'mouthey', as Byron joked) has been forgotten. This new biography tells the fascinating story of a complex and contradictory man, the mirror of his age, and sets him centre-stage to provide a new perspective on familiar events and figures.

4 editions published in 2000 in English and held by 365 libraries worldwide "The relationship between the various Romantic manifestos and the major poetry of the time is here examined by one of our leading critics of Romanticism. In spite of the apparent confidence associated with so many of these writers, Mark Storey argues that there is an underlying unease about the validity of poetry, perhaps best represented by Wordsworth's lines: 'We Poets in our youth begin in gladness;/ But thereof comes in the end despondency and madness'. The question, 'What is a poet?' is frequently asked, and many of the answers are involved with issues of identity, which in turn are reflected in the poetry. The doubts about individual abilities are matched by doubts as to what poetry can actually achieve: eventually there is even a sense that poetry can be destructive, and that the poet is best either silent or dead. Separate chapters are devoted to Wordsworth, Coleridge, Keats and Shelley, John Clare, Byron, and George Darley, all of whom confront themselves in their work."--BOOK JACKET.
