Reviews

Antony Harrison's approach is quite special within the field of Victorian poetry. He resists treating poems as purely aesthetic objects; instead, he sees them as cultural artifacts and, as such, as participants in contemporary cultural discourses. His strength is his ability to keep an eye on the specific language of a poem and, simultaneously, on the larger cultural discourse in which it participates. - Linda Peterson, Yale University
