Ideas of Nationhood in English Poetry, 1688-1900
The subject is not patriotism but the way poets are forced to place themselves in a tradition, a relationship to the state and the establishment--sometimes as apologists, rebels or outsiders to answer the questions: who speaks for a nation's consciousness? who decides the form of the national identity.
