The Fragmentary Poetic - Eighteenth-century Uses of an Experimental Mode

Klappentext A study of the mode of the fragmentary 18th-century poetry. Revisiting traditional literary historiography, it offers a fresh account of the 'Pindaric' impulse, a mode informing deliberate fragmentation. It discusses the ode, the long-poem, imitations of Spenser, Macpherson's 'reinventions' of the epic, and poems engaging with memory and ruin.
