Artistic Analysis on Tintern Abbey

Abstract

As one of the monasteries standing in English history for thousands of years, Tintern Abbey has great research value in religious history, architectural aesthetics, literature, and art. This paper selects the novels and the works of artists such as Wordsworth, Turner to explain that Tintern Abbey symbolizes the passing of the British rural community, the game between kingship and religious power, the natural representation in industrial civilization, and the disappointment of returning to the middle ages.
