Romantics, Rebels, And Reactionaries : English Literature And Its Background, 1760-1830

Attribution
Marilyn Butler
Publication Details
Book, Oxford University Press, 1982
Description
This study of the Romantics–Blake, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Austen, Scott, Bryon, Shelley, and Keats–places these richly varied writers into their proper historical setting. Demonstrating that the literature produced during this dynamic, restless time is not as homogenous as is generally assumed, Butler illuminates the ways in which these various experimental works reflected radically new sensibilities and aspirations.
