Along the way I probe the narrator's residual romanticism as a little-addressed foundation of the novel's testimony to a generational sensibility. By examining the relationship between Coco the narrator and Coco the protagonist, I contend that the narrator's sustained self-remembering evokes her growing unease with neoliberal values. The tension between post-romantic cynicism and residual romanticism suggests the extent to which a supposedly dissident novel may entice precisely for the ways its deep structure reinforces dominant discourses. Whereas Coco the protagonist follows a logic of consumerism, Coco the narrator gestures to non-commercial values--loyalty, care, empathy, trust, and solidarity. Appreciating the novel's residual romanticism alongside its post-romantic cynicism sheds new light on the story, its context, ambiguous feminism, and reception.展开更多

The thesis combines the theory of ecocriticism with romanticism to study Wordsworth's romantic poetry from an ecological perspective as Wordsworth,the great"worshipper of nature"can also be called an ecological critic since many of his poems are focused on ecological themes and he expresses his passion on an ecological basis. Going through the thesis is the most fundamental concept of ecocriticism: ecological holism. Supporting this backbone is analyzes of selected paradigmatic romantic poems by Wordsworth.展开更多

Blending the stylistic disparities in the two Romanticist poems, Persuasion 's autumnal sensation changes its colors from being tinged with Keats's melancholy to the touch of Shelley's animation. The integration of both tones has created a unique autumnal duet that is remindful of its Romanticist followers.展开更多
