Romanticism turned away from the past to explore new relationships between human beings and nature, idealism and experience. Major emphasis will be placed on Blake, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron, Shelley, and Keats. The impact of industry and science on the Victorian era will be considered in the poetry of Tennyson, Browning, and Arnold, and in Dickens’ novel, Hard Times. Finally, we will explore the diversity and experimentation of the twentieth century’s poetry, fiction, and drama, including the works of Conrad, Yeats, Woolf, and Eliot.
