Romantic Poets by Richard Holmes
Presents an illustrated history of an extraordinary generation, and assesses the impact of their work on contemporary culture and society. In an overlapping series of interwoven biographies of some literary giants, the author shows how the idea of Romantic genius spread through the Regency world of painting, journalism, theatre and even science.
Richard Holmes is well known for his many books on the Romantic period, including Shelley: The Pursuit, Footsteps and Sidetracks, and his two-volume biography of Coleridge, which won the Whitbread Prize. He is a Fellow of the British Academy and Professor of Biographical Studies at the University of East Anglia.
