Elations : The Poetics of Enthusiasm in Eighteenth-Century Britain, Hardcover by Irlam, Shaun, ISBN 0804735417, ISBN-13 9780804735414, Brand New, Free P&P in the UK Seeking "to discover what happens inside that black hole of English poetry between neoclassicism and romanticism," Irlam (comparative literature, State U. of New York-Buffalo) excavates the now seldom read poetry of two poets popular in 18th century England, James Thomson and Edward Young. The author explores the etymology of sentiment as a motif of rhetoric evolving from 17th century religious enthusiasm, which led poets to experiment with new ways to express changing views of subjectivity.
