Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)A completely new way of looking at the poetry of Rochester--one that does not ignore his politicality. Using the theories of Foucault and others, the author analyzes Rochester's writings--poems, drama, prose, and letters--within their contemporary civil and cultural context. The book also makes relevent Rochester's problematic stance as a libertine to our own condition in the late 20th century. A gem.
