Bücher von Theresa M. Kelley

This book offers a fresh understanding of the role of aesthetics in Wordsworth's major poetry and prose. Professor Kelley's 1988 text proposes aesthetic and geological precedents for this aesthetic model and evaluates its differences from the models developed by Burke, Kant and Hegel.
