In the period that stretches from Wordsworth’s time to our present, poetry’s strange life, the life of the virtual trope or figure, continues as it has always done. What changes are the conditions of life for its makers and readers: the increasing reach of a commodity capitalism that would conscript singular existence into the aesthetic or commodified image; the consequently threatened sacrifice or loss of what was “human in the past” to this regime; the human condemned to a failure to thrive. These are the conditions that the poetry of second-generation romanticism dramatizes and to which its biographical figures attest.","PeriodicalId":257367,"journal":{"name":"Lives of the Dead Poets","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129256195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In that poem, the Witch and her Hermaphrodite (the poetical character and the poetic figure) are radically withdrawn entities that solicit the attachments of others. The poem invites us to imagine poetry persisting into the future in the form of immured deposits, banked or planted without promise of return or future growth. The Witch of Atlas, in the manner of contemporary accounts of Shelley himself, speaks to a poetry that endures into the future by virtue of a ruthless rebuff of the human interest it in this way also captivates.","PeriodicalId":257367,"journal":{"name":"Lives of the Dead Poets","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123032961","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It argues that Coleridge’s late poetic work creates and occupies a mode or genre that he called “work without hope” and that this study, following the work of psychoanalyst André Green, calls “the work of the negative.” This work is reactive, written in the absence of an object and committed to an exploration of the negative spaces that open on this side of aim and end. It connects what Coleridge called his “abstruse research” to an idea of thinking as endless and illimitable work.","PeriodicalId":257367,"journal":{"name":"Lives of the Dead Poets","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131379302","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Turning to Keats’s own figurations of the poet in Endymion and The Fall of Hyperion, the chapter proposes that Keats’s poet-figures dramatize what Samuel Weber, following Benjamin, calls “the singular leave-taking of the singular” that is the very condition of modern experience. The modernity of Keats’s poetry involves this signaling and remembrance of lost singularity, an effect that detonates again in the reader’s relation to the biographical figure of Keats.","PeriodicalId":257367,"journal":{"name":"Lives of the Dead Poets","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132230027","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
