The Truth About Romanticism : Pragmatism and Idealism in Keats, Shelley, Coleridge

This monograph addresses a particularly wide-ranging and complex topic in reassessing the role of 'truth' in Romantic literature, as well as the relationship between Romantic and pragmatist traditions of thought more generally. Its thesis thus rests on extensive research not only into the works of Keats, Shelley, and Coleridge, but into modern theorists (Hilary Putnam, Donald Davidson, Charles Taylor, Jürgen Habermas and W.V.O. Quine), and historical philosophers (David Hume, Immanuel Kant, John Horne Tooke, Jeremy Bentham, and Thomas Reid, among others). Its interdisciplinary and intellectual reach, established over four years' work, underlies the request for double-weighting.
