- Title
Back to the Future: Lionel Trilling, "The Scholar-Gipsy," and the State of Victorian Poetry.
- Authors
Rampton, David
- Abstract
The author reflects upon the next direction that Victorian poetry scholarship will take by recommending resources and considering the implications for methods that other scholars have suggested. As a means to his analysis, the author focuses on the poem "The Scholar-Gipsy," by Matthew Arnold and the critical treatment that it received from Lionel Trilling in his book "The Opposing Self." The author concludes that Trilling's method is no longer used, which is a mistake.
