The True Voice of Feeling by Herbert Read

Herbert Read examines how poetic feeling takes shape in English Romantic poetry and its later inheritance. Discussions range across Coleridge, Wordsworth, Keats and Hopkins to Whitman, Lawrence, Pound and Eliot. The volume combines sustained literary criticism with essays on individual writers, and includes an appendix translating Schelling on the relationship between art and nature.
