Böcker av Erik Gray

"This subtle and meticulously discriminating study of the Victorians' Milton takes the critical debate on influence a stage further by exploring the paradox of Milton's powerful influence and invisible presence in Victorian culture."-Isobel Armstrong

Indifference is rare in poetry, which is traditionally in direct opposition t by its heightened emotion, consciousness, and effort. This definition applies especially to English poets of the 19th century. Yet it was in this period, Erik Gray argues, that a concentrated strain of poetic indifference began to emerge.
