Produktbeschreibung

In "Oxford Lectures on Poetry," A. C. Bradley offers a profound exploration of poetic aesthetics that delves into the emotional resonance and philosophical underpinnings of poetry. Structured as a series of lectures, Bradley adopts a critical style that combines rigorous analysis with accessible language, making complex theories of poetry comprehensible. The work significantly engages with the Romantic and Victorian poets, providing insights into their thematic concerns and stylistic innovations, thus situating his discourse within the broader context of literary criticism of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. A. C. Bradley, a distinguished scholar and critic, was deeply influenced by his own experiences as a poet and a lecturer at Oxford. His extensive background in English literature and his connections to the literary figures of his time fostered a nuanced understanding of the subtleties of poetic expression. His emphasis on the psychological dimensions of poetry reflects a critical response to the prevailing literary trends of his era and illustrates his commitment to unpacking the deeper meanings behind the words. This book is an essential read for anyone seeking to enhance their understanding of poetry and its emotional impact. Bradley's eloquent analysis not only enriches the study of significant poets but also invites readers to engage on a personal level with the transformative power of poetry itself.
