  • Literary Branding in the Romantic Period
    Literary Branding in the Romantic Period by Christopher Laxer A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of English University of Toronto © Copyright by Christopher Laxer 2013 Literary Branding in the Romantic Period Christopher Laxer Doctor of Philosophy Department of English University of Toronto 2013 Abstract This thesis argues that, unlike the study of commodity branding, the study of literary branding should not focus solely upon book advertising, but rather investigate all of the processes of attribution that connect conceptual domains with literary labels, enabling their common use in the perception and navigation of the cultural world. Such processes should not be understood exclusively by analogy with the forms of commodity branding that originated in the consumer revolutions of the eighteenth or nineteenth centuries, but rather as the inherent consequences of more ancient and fundamental practices of naming and poetry. Rather than interpret the reactions of historical readers to Byron, for instance, largely in terms of the author as subject – as has been the tendency with earlier approaches to the question – this thesis seeks to explore historical readers’ reactions to the author’s name as label. The readers of Don Juan in 1819 knew Byron, not as we do after two centuries of biographical research, scholarly inquiry, and literary criticism, but as a literary label with relatively few associations. Arguing that the recent vogue for celebrity studies risks reifying elements of what Jerome McGann has called the Romantic Ideology, this thesis attempts to begin to redress this critical imbalance by examining the deployment of a number of interconnected literary labels in a series of case studies.

  • Introduction
    Notes Introduction 1. Stuart Curran opened his seminal essay, ‘Romantic Poetry: The I Altered’, in Romanticism and Feminism, ed. Anne K. Mellor (Bloomington and Indiana- polis: Indiana UP, 1988): ‘Let us suppose they all died young: not just Keats at twenty-five, Shelley at twenty-nine, and Byron at thirty-six, but Coleridge in 1802, Wordsworth in 1807, and Southey on the day in 1813 he became poet laureate’ (185). Marilyn Butler likewise entertained the idea of killing Wordsworth prematurely, as early as 1793, in ‘Plotting the Revolution: The Political Narratives of Romantic Poetry and Criticism’, in Romantic Revolu- tions: Criticism and Theory, ed. Kenneth Johnston et al. (Bloomington and Indianapolis: Indiana UP, 1990), pp. 133–157. In the process of telling the story of how he was cured from depression by reading Wordsworth in 1828, John Stuart Mill parenthesises the later Wordsworth with extraordinary authority: ‘the miscellaneous poems, in the two-volume edition of 1815 (to which little of value was added in the latter part of the author’s life), proved to be the precise thing for my mental wants at that particular juncture’. Auto- biography and Other Writings, ed. Jack Stillinger (Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1969), p. 88. In 1879, Matthew Arnold, more famously and influ- entially, originated the notion of Wordsworth’s Great Decade when he said that ‘within one single decade , between 1798 and 1808, almost all his really first rate work was produced’. Poems of Wordsworth (London and New York: Macmillan, 1888, 1st ed. 1879), p. xii. In the early 1980s, the most influential Romanticist of the last two decades, Jerome McGann, in the most casual manner remarked that in 1807 Wordsworth ‘fell asleep’.

  • Wordsworth, Memory, and Metaphor in Paul Farley's “Thorns”
    “Never Some Easy Flashback” 6 DOI: 10.2478/abcsj-2013-0001 “NEVER SOME EASY FLASHBACK”: Wordsworth, Memory, and Metaphor in Paul Farley’s “Thorns” CHARLES ARMSTRONG University of Agder Abstract This paper provides a close reading of Paul Farley’s 160-line poem, “Thorns.” The poem is read in dialogue with William Wordsworth’s celebrated Romantic ballad “The Thorn.” Special attention is given to Farley’s treatment of memory and metaphor: It is shown how the first, exploratory part of the poem elaborates upon the interdependent nature of memory and metaphor, while the second part uses a more regulated form of imagery in its evocation of a generational memory linked to a particular place and time (the working-class Liverpool of the 1960s and 1970s). The tension between the two parts of the poem is reflected in the taut relationship between the poet and a confrontational alter ego. Wordsworth’s importance for Farley is shown to inhere not only in the Lake Poet’s use of personal memory, but also the close connection between his poetry and place, as well as a strongly self-reflective strain that results in an interminable process of self-determination. Farley’s independence as a poet also comes across, though, and is for instance in evidence in his desire to avoid the “booby trap” of too simple appropriation of the methods and motifs of his Romantic predecessor. Keywords: Paul Farley, William Wordsworth, contemporary poetry, Romantic poetry, literary influence, memory, metaphor, transcendence, class, political utopia The acclaimed, contemporary British poet Paul Farley was the writer in residence at The Wordsworth Trust in Grasmere between 2000 and 2002.

  • 1 Chapter 3 Wordsworth and Literary Friendship Felicity James in The
    Chapter 3 Wordsworth and Literary Friendship Felicity James In the midst of Wordsworth’s recollection of what the poet ‘owed to books in early life’ in The Prelude comes a characteristic exclamation to the poem’s addressee, Coleridge: ‘O Friend! O Poet! Brother of my soul’ (Prel–13, V. 180). Coleridge, ‘beloved Friend’, is asked to reflect on the ways in which wandering ‘as we did / Through heights and hollows and bye spots of tales’ might have shaped their shared poetic sensibilities (233–5). The Prelude is punctuated by such apostrophes to friendship, which bind together books and nature in a landscape of affection. Indeed, the first use of the term in the 1805 Prelude comes in line five, as the gentle breeze is greeted as a ‘welcome Friend!’ (I. 5). This is echoed in Book Twelve, where nature itself becomes the ‘best and purest Friend’ of creative genius (XII. 10). Wordsworth’s relationship with Coleridge—who, as the poet’s unnamed ‘dear Friend’, ‘my Friend! so prompt / In sympathy’ also stands in for the ideal reader—thus becomes continuous with the inspirational power of the Lake District (I. 145, 646–7). This is highlighted by the evocation of the poet’s Hawkshead schooldays where the joy of shared ‘boyish sport’ around Windermere or Levens Sands is both an expression of friendship and of appreciation for the landscape: ‘Thus daily were my sympathies enlarged’ (II. 54, 181). Reading, too, is allied both to friendship and to the natural landscape: the memory of 1 vainly saving for The Arabian Nights with his schoolfellows is linked to moments of greedy summer reading beside the Derwent, and even his enjoyment of books at Cambridge makes the same connection, as he laughs with Chaucer ‘beside the pleasant Mills of Trompington’ and hails Spencer as ‘Brother, Englishman and Friend’ (III.

  • Materialising Cultural Value in the English Lakes, 1735-1845
    MATERIALISING CULTURAL VALUE IN THE ENGLISH LAKES, 1735-1845: A STUDY OF THE RESPONSES OF NEW LANDOWNERS TO REPRESENTATIONS OF PLACE AND PEOPLE A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Derek Denman, MA (Lancaster), C.Eng., MIET September 2011 Copyright © 2011 Derek Denman All rights reserved Abstract This thesis explores responses to the cultural construction in the developing identity of the English Lakes from 1735 to 1845, through studies of three landowners. The principal focus is Derwentwater. The Greenwich Hospital held estates from 1735 to 1832, Lord William Gordon from 1781 to 1823, and John Marshall of Leeds, the flax spinner, from 1810 and 1845. The study classifies the identity of the English Lakes and its inhabitants with Regions of Romance, as a territory increasingly occupied by the romantic antithesis of the dominant thesis within the modern age. The cultural identity of the English Lakes is considered as a construction of Throsby’s cultural values, established through discourse and overlaid upon economic values. This anthropological approach to culture recognises both aesthetic and social cultural assets. The acquisition, management and disposal of landowners estates are examined to evidence the materialisation of cultural values, whether through the agency of discourse, the influence of others, or personal experience. During the eighteenth century the Hospital responded to criticism minimally, by planting the Derwentwater shore. Lord William Gordon responded strongly to discourse by creating a picturesque park which demonstrated his taste and values, and by completing the picturesque occupation of Derwentwater by 1787. Wordsworth influenced the choice and management of John Marshall’s extensive estates from 1811, providing an early materialisation of the principles in Wordsworth’s Guide.
