Mr. J. C. STOBART and Miss MARY SOMER-VILLE, ' Stories in Poetry-IX, Romantic Poetry '

on 2LO London and 5XX Daventry

View in Radio Times

IN today's talk Mr. Stobart and Miss Somervillo will discuss the work of the Romantics, who created a revolution in English poetry when it had fallen into the hands of the imitators of Dryden and Pope, and how far the term ' Romantic ' can fairly be applied, in the modern sense, to what they wrote. They will mention particularly two indubitably romantic narrative poems—Keats' ' The Eve of St. Agnes,' and Coleridge's lovely dream fantasy, ' Kubla Khan.
