"At first glance, Stoic philosophers and Romantic writers seem to have nothing in common: the ancient Stoics championed the elimination of emotion, and Romantic writers made a bold new case for its expression, adopting "powerful feeling" as the bedrock of poetry itself. In fact, as th...

Stoicism, the author argues, was a central preoccupation in a world newly destabilized by the French Revolution. In creating a space for the skeptical evaluation of feeling and affect, Stoicism in the Romantic period became the subject of poetic reflection, ethical inquiry, and political debate for such writers as Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron, Mary Shelley, and Ralph Waldo Emerson"--  |c Provided by publisher.
