It argues that they do so not only to interrogate their own imaginations, but also as a way of criticizing Europes growing imperialism. For them the Orient is a projection of Europes own fears and desires. It is therefore a charged setting in which to explore and contest the limits of the ages aesthetics, politics and culture. Being nearly always self-conscious and ironic, the poets treatment of the Orient becomes itself a twinned criticism of Romantic egotism and the Orientalism practised by earlier generations. The book goes further to claim that poems like Shelleys Revolt of Islam, Byrons Eastern Tales, or even Keatss Lamia anticipate key issues at stake in postcolonial studies more generally.</p>...3444085The Orient and the Young Romantics714871https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-orient-and-the-young-romantics-9781316120507/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3206611/9d3689d8-3156-43e0-9789-5a21e6971e8c.jpg?v=638385029115770000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20149781316120507_W3siaWQiOiIwYjA4NzFlMS04NjUwLTRlYzUtOGU1OS01ODE5MjJhMGYyZjEiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjkyMywiZGlzY291bnQiOjE2Niwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjo3NTcsImluY2x1ZGVzVGF4Ijp0cnVlLCJwcmljZVR5cGUiOiJXaG9sZXNhbGUiLCJjdXJyZW5jeSI6Ik1YTiIsImZyb20iOiIyMDI1LTA2LTAyVDIyOjAwOjAwWiIsInRvIjoiMjAyNS0wNi0zMFQyMzo1OTo1OVoiLCJyZWdpb24iOiJNWCIsImlzUHJlb3JkZXIiOmZhbHNlfSx7ImlkIjoiZTFjNmJmYWItM2VmZS00MTZiLTk4ODktY2U5MmZjY2U5NDJiIiwibGlzdFByaWNlIjo4NzEsImRpc2NvdW50IjoxNTcsInNlbGxpbmdQcmljZSI6NzE0LCJpbmNsdWRlc1RheCI6dHJ1ZSwicHJpY2VUeXBlIjoiV2hvbGVzYWxlIiwiY3VycmVuY3kiOiJNWE4iLCJmcm9tIjoiMjAyNS0wNy0wMVQwMDowMDowMFoiLCJyZWdpb24iOiJNWCIsImlzUHJlb3JkZXIiOmZhbHNlfV0=9781316120507_<p>Through close readings of major poems, this book examines why the second-generation Romantic poets - Byron, Shelley, and Keats - stage so much of their poetry in Eastern or Orientalized settings.
