The Song of The Earth

The Song of The Earth

By: Jonathan Bate

This is  a book about why poetry continues to matter as we enter a new millenium that will be ruled by technology. It is a book about modern Western man’s alienation from nature. It is about the capacity of the writer to restore us to the earth which is our home. The argument begins from certain prose works novels by Jane Austen and Thomas Hardy, the philosophy of Jean Jacques Rouseau, Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein, the wriring of the naturalist W.H. Hudson but is then concentrated upon a group of early nineteenth century English poets who meditated deeply on the complex relations between humankind, nature and society: William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, John Keats, Percy Bysshe Shelly, Lord Byron and John Clare. They are chief among thoses who have come to be called the “Romantics”. [download]
