The six poets who created the great works that form the core of British Romantic poetry—William Blake, William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Lord Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and John Keats—all explored the major Romantic themes of nature, death, the supernatural, the wonders of imagination, and the meaning of individual experience in their works. This book presents different sides of these poets’ lives: from the great letter-writing age in which they lived, it includes examples of how they communicated with each other and their contemporaries, opening a window into the actual lives they lived.
