Ten Poems by the Romantics by Various Poets (9781907598050)

Description - Ten Poems by the Romantics by Various Poets

With an Introduction by Catherine Kay, Education Officer at The Wordsworth Trust, Ten Poems by The Romantics covers a lot of ground in a short space (not quite William Blake's a world in a grain of sand but something along those lines). The Romantics shared a passionate belief in the transforming power of the imagination and a related faith in the human spirit. The poems in this selection introduce the reader to the ideas and themes of Romantic poetry, and also to its beauty and music. Poems by William Blake, Lord Byron, William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Charlotte Smith, John Keats, Felicia Hemans, Dorothy Wordsworth and Percy Bysshe Shelley. Cover illustration by Peter Reddick.
