A poor youth who died early from tuberculosis, Kirke White shaped the popular image of the Romantic artist as a young rebel against convention who is too sensitive to survive in the harsh commercial world. As a prodigy who made his incipient death the subject of his tragic poetry, he was influential on both sides of the Atlantic—on Keats, Byron, Shelley, Browning, Emerson and Bryant. The edition restores his powerful, macabre and prophetic verse to attention, and also demonstrates his variety and range. It includes a comprehensive introduction discussing the creation of his public image, the marketing of his poetry, and the impacts he made on nineteenth-century poetry, on labouring-class writing and on publishing history.Item Metadata only Collected Writings of Robert Bloomfield(Romantic Circles, 2018) Fulford, TimAn edition of the writings of the poet and children's writer Robert BloomfieldItem Open Access Davy Takes to the Hills: Dialogic Enquiry and the Aesthetics of the Prospect View(Taylor and Francis, 2019-05-15) Fulford, TimA study of the social culture in which the science of geology was developed.Item Open Access Ecopoetics and Boyopoetics: Bloomfield, Clare and the Nature of Lyric(Taylor and Francis, 2020-09-24) Fulford, TimThis article investigates the ecological lyrics of Robert Bloomfield and John Clare, suggesting that the elision of adult subject-positions in the latter was influenced by the pioneering poetry of the former. An alternative to the sublime egotism of William Wordsworth, and to the “Greater Romantic Lyric” as defined by twentieth-century criticism, Bloomfield’s and Clare’s eco-poetry is characterized by a delicate, intricate and valuable lyricism that does not use nature as a sounding-bound for a supposedly timeless, bourgeois male subjectivity. But it was shaped as much by the book market—by class-based restrictions on laboring-class men’s access to print—as by the poets’ exceptionally selfless environmentalism.Item Embargo Experimentalism in Wordsworth's later Poetry: Dialogues with the Dead(Cambridge University Press, 2023-05-31) Fulford, TimItem Open Access Farmers' Boys and Doomed Youths: Producing the Poet in the Print Culture of the Romantic Era.(Taylor and Francis, 2024-05-05) Fulford, TimTwo of the ten bestselling poets of the nineteenth century were almost completely excluded from the twentieth-century canon. Robert Bloomfield (1766–1823) and Henry Kirke White (1785–1806) were huge successes in the expanding print culture of the Romantic era. Their publications were influential on many of the poets who were admitted to the canon. Nevertheless, they have become so obscure that their influence—powerful on Clare, Keats, and Shelley for example— has been almost entirely forgotten. So has their role in shaping the cultural figure of the Romantic poet and their impact upon the publishing of poetry in a period when bookselling was transforming into a sales-driven mass market. Both were from the laboring class; each was publicized commercially because it was, supposedly, amazing that they had become poets at all, considering their social origins. They happened to be excellent poets but, in an early manifestation of PR, they were as much branded as phenomena as they were advertised for excellence. In this article I shall explore how this packaging worked and what it shows about the selling of books, the construction of a cultural image of the poet, and the influence of their poetry on aspiring poets.Item Open Access Humphry Davy, Jane Marcet and the Cultures of Romantic-Era Science(Taylor and Francis, 2021-11-18) Fulford, TimUsing the career of Humphry Davy, the era’s most famous natural philosopher, I examine the Romantic construction of the scientific genius and explore, beyond it, several of the cultures in which enquiry into nature was practised in the period. I argue that Jane Marcet introduced Davy to a more gender-balanced, continental scientific circle and that her work Conversations on Chemistry (1805) effected a feminization and democratization of the “man of science,” helping to inaugurate a new era in which mass print encouraged both women and men from socially-excluded groups to access scientific knowledge and practice.Item Metadata only The Late Poetry of the Lake Poets(Cambridge University Press, 2013) Fulford, TimItem Metadata only Literature, science and exploration in the Romantic era : bodies of knowledge.(Cambridge University Press, 2004) Fulford, Tim; Lee, Debbie.; Kitson, Peter J.Item Metadata only Mary Robinson and the Abyssinian Maid: Coleridge's Muses and Feminist Criticism(Erudit, 1999-02) Fulford, TimItem Open Access The Materialization of the Lyric and the Romantic Construction of Place: Bards and Beasts on Dartmoor(Edinburgh University Press, 2016) Fulford, TimItem Open Access Metaphysics in the Circle of Thomas Beddoes, Thomas Wedgwood, S.

In what follows I examine a less- discussed aspect of Coleridge‘s engagement with pantheism at Göttingen University—its imbrication with what is now called earth science but was then known as natural history. This imbrication, I suggest, shaped Coleridge‘s engagement with nature—the landscape—in 1799, allowing him to adopt a pantheistic view of the world purged of what he had come to see as the atheistic materialism of his mid-1790s influences. In turn, this Coleridgean engagement became one of the formative influences on the nascent culture of geological enquiry in England. It was taken up in the social practice of field investigation and in the model of enquiry adopted by Coleridge‘s friends, who went on, in 1807, to found the world‘s first geological society. I focus in particular on one of these friends—Humphry Davy. Coleridgean Spinozism became one of several shaping influences on Davy‘s conception of nature as a single dynamic ̳economy‘ of processes. Insofar as Davy made important discoveries about nature—isolating new elements and revealing that the interaction of electrical and chemical forces held matter together—then this conception can be said to have had significant effects.Item Embargo Patronage, Philosophy, and Publicity: Thomas Wedgwood, Thomas Beddoes, and the Pneumatic Institution(Royal Photographic Society, 2022) Fulford, TimItem Metadata only The Regency Revisited(Palgrave Macmillan, 2016-01) Fulford, Tim; Sinatra, M.
