Reviews

The book's passionate, insightful, deeply informed, and provocative arguments are bound to elicit strong responses of many kinds. Its exceptional ability to bring new and compelling historical complexity to Clare and his poetry, however, cannot be questioned, and together with its lucidity, conviction, and willingness to provoke will make this book a 'must read' in Clare studies for decades to come. (Scott Hess, John Clare Society Journal, Issue 37, June, 2018) Simon Koevesi's John Clare: Nature, Criticism and History positions itself as an intervention in Clare studies, and in literary criticism more generally. ... John Clare: Nature, Criticism and History is invaluable for its insights into the ways in which an ecological agenda might inform editorial and research practices. (Matthew McConkey, Textual Practice, Vol. 32 (02), 2018)
