Margaret Drabble on the Romantics Spawn shutting their mouths and mindsMargaret Drabble on the RomanticsHerself a literary luminary, Drabble illuminates how this love of place fashioned some of the Romantics greatest works. She considers the resonances of myth and legend, art and earlier literature that the Romantics found in places such as North Wales and Cornwall, and investigates how their writing has, in turn, shaped our visual attitudes, taste in landscape and relation to nature.
