Rezensionen

'Criticism at its best: Larkin's book is a profound dwelling on Romantic poetry and on what it means to be a reader of Romantic poetry today. Full of the most discriminating and rewarding attentiveness throughout, its engagement with Wordsworth transforms our understanding of his late, revisionary imagination.' - Tim Fulford, Nottingham Trent University, UK 'Peter Larkin is one of our most subtly meditative critics. Wordsworth and Coleridge are his longstanding familiars, and his responses to them in this continuously original, provocative book exhibit an intensity of thinking that seems to outflank the more routine protocols of commentary.' - Paul Fry, William Lampson Professor of English, Yale University, USA
