- Title
HISTORICAL LANDSCAPE IN TED HUGHES'S REMAINS OF ELMET.
- Authors
Haberstroh, Patricia Boyle
- Abstract
The article discusses the Yorkshire, England historical landscape in the book of Ted Hughes called "Remains of Elmet," a volume of poems illustrated with photographs by Fay Godwin. According to the author, Hughes turns to a Yorkshire landscape to make a racial history which places the decline of the Calder Valley in an inevitable cycle of natural process and human response to that process. It is noted that this historical landscape serves as a signpost for the direction English culture that would take in the centuries that followed.
