- Authors
Holland, Owen
- Abstract
The article offers criticism of poetry of poet Matthew Arnold and Arthur Hugh Clough along with political symbolism and Chartist movement poetry. It further discusses Arnold's homeopathic conception of cultural cross-fertilization and transnational exchange; Clough's "The Bothie of Toper-na-Fuosich" focuses on democratic convictions; and Arnold's poetry & Chartist poetry offers an uncomplicated or transparent medium for the prosecution of ideological wars of position.
