Keats and Mary Tighe: The Poems of Mary Tighe With Parallel Passages From the Works of John Keats (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781025765976)

"Keats and Mary Tighe: The Poems of Mary Tighe With Parallel Passages From the Works of John Keats" is an essential scholarly examination of the literary connection between the prominent Irish poet Mary Tighe and the legendary Romantic figure John Keats. This volume presents the collected poetry of Tighe-best known for her influential epic "Psyche; or, The Legend of Love"-alongside carefully curated parallel passages from the works of Keats. By doing so, it provides a fascinating comparative study of the thematic and stylistic influences that Tighe exerted over one of the most celebrated poets in the English language.

The work serves as a vital resource for understanding the interconnected nature of Romantic-era literature. It highlights shared imagery, classical motifs, and the evolution of the romantic sensibility across the early nineteenth century. By placing Tighe's verses in direct conversation with Keats's own output, the book underscores her importance within the literary canon and her specific role in shaping the aesthetic development of Keats. This collection is indispensable for scholars of British and Irish poetry, researchers of women's writing, and anyone interested in the complex dynamics of poetic inspiration and legacy.
