About This Book

"Romantic Dynamics: the Poetics of Physicality creatively collides English Romantic poetry with a wide range of concepts from contemporary theoretical physics in an attempt to track shared assumptions in their models of material and mental dynamics. The work calls into question the perceived tension between Romantic poetics and physical theory and links such perceptions to recent backlashes against various modes of postmodern criticism.

This interdisciplinary work traces the elaboration of dynamical models of cosmos and consciousness in works by Blake, Byron, Coleridge, the Shelleys and Wordsworth, finding in those works an exploration of the interpenetration of psyche and phenomena."--BOOK JACKET.
