The romantic paradox: love, violence and the uses of romance, 1760-1830
By: Labbe, Jacqueline MMaterial type: TextPublication details: London Macmillan 2000Edition: 3rdDescription: ix,211pISBN: 0333760328Subject(s): English literature | English poetry- History and criticism | RomanticismDDC classification: 821.609145 Summary: Why are there so few happily ever afters' in the Romantic-period verse romance? Why do so many poets utilise the romance and its parts to such devastating effect? Why is gender so often the first victim? The Romantic Paradox investigates the prevalence of violence and death in the poetic romances of the Romantic period, and discovers that poets in the period under discussion were also highly skilled at dismembering the genre, allowing its parts - the quest, the hero, the love relationship, the supernatural - to stand in for, even replace, the whole narrative. The violence done to genre reflects the violence condoned by genre: during the Romantic period, the romance systematically destroyed itself. In her exploration of the poetry of the Della Cruscans, Coleridge, Keats, Mary Robinson, Felicia Hemans, Letitia Landon and Byron, Labbe posits that understanding the romance and its violent tendencies is vital to understanding Romanticism itself.Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
