On Not Defending Poetry

Defence and Indefensibility in Sidney's Defence of Poesy

Beschreibung

Sidney's Defence of Poesy is generally taken to present a model of poetry as ideal: the poet depicts ideals of human conduct which readers are inspired to imitate. Catherine Bates challenges this view, and shows how idealist poetics is complicit with the money form and its related ills: commodification, fetishism, and the abuse of power.
