Reason And Imagination: A Study of Form and Meaning in Four Poems

3/5 ( ratings)

REASON AND IMAGINATION discusses the ways in which poetry expresses thought; how imagination may become, in Coleridge's phrase, 'the agent of the reason'. The author considers claims put forward by the New Criticism and by the disciples of Jung, but upholds the traditional view that historical interpretation is a necessary part of literary criticism.
