"Robert Southey was very much the equal of his fellow 'Lake Poets', Coleridge and Wordsworth. But since his death his reputation has been overshadowed by their success. In this biography W. A. Speck argues that if Southey's poetry is no longer considered as significant, his other writings were more salient and his political views far more influential than those of his fellow poets. He was, as Byron conceded, England's 'only existing entire man of letters'. [This was pretty amazing, considering the enmity that had existed between Byron and Southey. - PB] "The book engages with Southey's voluminous publications, weaving discussion of them into the narrative of his life.It shows how he moved from self-confessed republican and admirer of the French Revolution in the 1790s, to 'the most powerful literary supporter of the Tories' by the 1820s. [Southey was made Poet Laureate. - PB] Speck has explored Southey's full correspondence, not simply that which appeared in the editions edited by Southey's descendants, and the letters reveal a man of considerably greater emotional complexity than previously assumed" Taken from Wikipedia: |> Robert Southey was an English poet of the Romantic school, and Poet Laureate from 1813 until his death. Experimenting with a writing partnership with Samuel Taylor Coleridge, most notably in their joint composition of "The Fall of Robespierre", Southey published his first collection of poems in 1794. The same year, Southey, Coleridge, Robert Lovell and several others discussed creating an idealistic community ("Pantisocracy") on the banks of the Susquehanna River in America. Southey was also a prolific letter writer, literary scholar, essay writer, historian and biographer. His biographies include the life and works of John Bunyan, John Wesley, William Cowper, Oliver Cromwell and Horatio Nelson. He was an early critic of the evils the new factory system brought to early 19th-century Britain. He was appalled by the living conditions in factory towns, and especially by employment of children in factories and outspoken about them. He advocated that the state promote public works to maintain high employment, and called for universal education.<|.…
