| Résumé anglais |
This article should be read as an introduction to a complete study of the critics' discourse on poetry in the first half of the nineteenth century in America. We have tried to analyse the significance of the approaches favored by America's judicial critics. The main point here developed is that critics did not try to define poetry ; they could only say what poetry was not. With examples of critical reaction to Wordsworth's and Byron's poems we show that this approach to literature is linked to a conservative vision of life and society. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
