By examining texts in a variety of genres ? ranging from self-experimental medical texts to lyric poetry to metaphysical essays ? Stanback demonstrates the extent to which non-normative embodiment was central to Romantic-era thought and Romantic-era aesthetics. The book reassesses well-known literary and medical works by such authors as William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and Humphry Davy, argues for the importance of lesser-studied work by authors including Charles Lamb and Thomas Beddoes, and introduces significant unpublished work by Tom Wedgwood. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Literature, Science and Medicine,$x2634-6435 606 $aLiterature, Modern?19th century 606 $aPoetry 606 $aBritish literature 606 $aLiterature?History and criticism 606 $aNineteenth-Century Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/821000 606 $aPoetry and Poetics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/824000 606 $aBritish and Irish Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/833000 606 $aLiterary History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/813000 615 0$aLiterature, Modern?19th century. 615 0$aPoetry. 615 0$aBritish literature. 615 0$aLiterature?History and criticism. 615 14$aNineteenth-Century Literature. 615 24$aPoetry and Poetics. 615 24$aBritish and Irish Literature. 615 24$aLiterary History. 676 $a809.034 700 $aStanback$b Emily B$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01057977 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255228103321 996 $aThe Wordsworth-Coleridge Circle and the Aesthetics of Disability$92496246 997 $aUNINA
