Description
What is 'Wordsworthian' Romanticism and how did it evolve? This book argues that only by reading Charlotte Smith's poetry in tandem with William Wordsworth's can this question be answered, demonstrating their mutual contribution to the creation of the 'Wordsworthian', through literary analysis and historical contextualizing of their writings.
Reviews / Votes
'Jacqueline Labbe's work on Charlotte Smith is second to none...Labbe's is a bold vision, and one likely to change the way in which
we view early Romanticism.' - Claire Knowles, European Romantic Review
