Böcker av Matthew Rowlinson

Matthew Rowlinson has given us the most penetrating analysis of Tennyson's poetry to date. He proposes a revitalized and properly analytic formalism as the appropriate model for reading of Tennyson. In a series of original, scrupulously attentive, and sophisticated close readings, he probes the nature of place and the structuring of desire in Tennyson's work.

This analysis probes the nature of place and the structuring of desire in Tennyson's poetry. Focusing on the poet's early writings - fragments and poems produced between 1824 and 1833 - the author conflates desconstructive theory with psychoanalytic insights.
