An Essay on the Beautiful

Overview

In different forms Blake, Coleridge, Wordsworth, Shelley, Keats -- even, for a short time, Byron -- were all responsive to neo-Platonic thinking. Publication of Taylor's translation of Plotinus in 1792 was timely because it meant that at the outset of the Romantic period pre-Christian Greek versions of the One Life are placed alongside the dominant new quasi-scientific Unitarianism of Priestley and his followers. Poetry such as Coleridge's 'Frost at midnight' and Wordsworth's 'Tintern Abbey' offer a vital fusion of the two.
