About This Item
Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1988. HC. fine w/fine dustjacket (hardcover). ISBN 0691067481 Discussing the work of over thirty major and minor poets, the author focuses on what Victorian critics viewed as an unprecedented psychological school of poetry related to early psychiatry and rooted in the poetic "science of feelings" (Wordsworth). This broad historical perspective enables Faas to redefine our current terminology regarding the dramatic monologue and to document the extent to which early psychiatry shaped the poetry, poetics, and general frame of mind of the Victorians. 312pp.
