Time and Timelessness in Victorian Poetry by Irmtraud Huber
Demonstrates what Victorian poetry tells us about the relationship between poetry and time
"How can an aesthetic form that claims to be timeless survive the rapidity of social and technological change driven by industrial capitalism? Irmtraud Huber's incisive study of poetic form, genres and metre gets to the heart of one of the key debates in literature: what is poetry for in the modern age? ?" -John Holmes, University of Birmingham
