Morton D. Paley

Apocalypse and Millennium in English Romantic Poetry

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The interrelationship of apocalypse and millennium is a dominant concern in British Romanticism. The Book of Revelation provides a model of history in which apocalypse is followed by millennium, but the major Romantic poets question the possibility of a successful secularization of this model. Is history developing towards end time and millennium, or is it cyclical and purposeless?
