It opens up the issue of repetition and cyclical time as a key feature of both poetic and prose texts in the Victorian/Edwardian period. The emphasis is upon the resonance of landscape as a vehicle of meaning, and upon the philosophical and aesthetic implications of the doctrine of ‘recurrence’ for the authors whose work is examined here, ranging from Tennyson and Hallam to Swinburne and Hardy. The book offers radically new light on a range of central nineteenth-century texts. .Literature, Modern—19th centuryBritish literatureFictionPoetryNineteenth-Century Literaturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/821000British and Irish Literaturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/833000Fictionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/825000Poetry and Poeticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/824000Literature, Modern—19th century.British literature.Fiction.Poetry.Nineteenth-Century Literature.British and Irish Literature.Fiction.Poetry and Poetics.809.034Ebbatson Rogerauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut166676BOOK9910148846603321Landscapes of Eternal Return2533440UNINA
