Studies in Romanticism with emphasis on the legacy of English Romantic poetry and prose in post-romantic literature. We will consider, for example, how Wordsworth’s originality influenced such writers as De Quincy, Baudelaire, Proust, and Walter Benjamin. Or, to trace a different tradition, Whitman and Wallace Stevens. Or, still another tradition, Woolf and Lawrence.
