English Literary Criticism By Charles Edwyn Vaughan

""The Romantic Revolt"" is a historical and literary analysis of the Romantic movement in literature and art. Written by Charles Edwyn Vaughan and first published in 1907, the book explores the origins, development, and impact of Romanticism on European culture. The book begins by examining the cultural and political climate of Europe in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, which provided the backdrop for the Romantic movement. Vaughan then delves into the works of key Romantic writers, such as William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Lord Byron, and Percy Bysshe Shelley, analyzing their poetry, prose, and drama in detail.Vaughan also explores the influence of Romanticism on other art forms, including painting, music, and architecture. He discusses the work of artists such as J.M.W. Turner, John Constable, and Caspar David Friedrich, as well as the music of Ludwig van Beethoven and Franz Schubert.Throughout the book, Vaughan argues that the Romantic movement was a response to the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution, which had led to a sense of disillusionment and alienation among many people. He suggests that the Romantics sought to reconnect with nature, emotion, and the spiritual realm in order to find meaning and purpose in their lives.Overall, ""The Romantic Revolt"" provides a comprehensive overview of the Romantic movement and its impact on European culture. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in literature, art, or cultural history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
