This article proposes a re-evaluation of Beddoes’ achievement in poetry, a field in which he has often been eclipsed by other scientist-writers, including his own son Thomas Lovell Beddoes, and, more recently, his protégé Davy as well. Interpretation of how the scientific, political, and literary aspects of Dr Beddoes’ career were connected has been affected by political and personal interests; a significant historical factor was the contested role of John Edmonds Stock, the official biographer engaged by the Beddoes family. Coleridge wrote: “I feel permitted to avow the pain, yea the sense of shame with which I contemplate Dr Stock as a performer. I could not help assenting to Southey’s remark, that the proper vignette for the work would be a funeral lamp besides an urn and Dr Stock in the act of placing an extinguisher on it.” In fact the allegedly dull Stock may have been chosen for partisan reasons, as Neil Vickers has explained. Stock had been implicated in an armed plot to kidnap the Lord Chief Justice of Scotland, after which the ringleader Robert Watt was executed in 1794; Stock fled to America, where he took a degree in Philadelphia, returning to England during the Peace of Amiens (1802) and receiving a pardon. It is likely that Stock was entrusted to write an authorised life by Beddoes’ widow Anna Maria specifically because he would be likely to cleanse the life of political radicalism and concentrate on the science; this seems to have contributed to the relative neglect also of Beddoes’s literary contribution to British Romanticism, notwithstanding his","PeriodicalId":281500,"journal":{"name":"Essays in Romanticism","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114555566","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}
