DESCRIPTION
This course studies the cultural movement known as Romanticism, an important period of innovation in literary history. It will be a survey course that examines major figures in the movement, c. 1790-1830, including the poets Blake, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Keats, and Shelley. In addition to poetry, we will read prose, fiction and satire; lectures will also explore visual and popular culture. Some recurrent themes that will be analysed include revolutions (political and industrial), imperialism, class and gender.
