William Lisle Bowles Boeken
William Lisle Bowles was een Engelse priester, dichter en criticus wiens vroege sonnetten aanzienlijke bijval oogstten en tijdgenoten als Coleridge en Wordsworth beïnvloedden. Naast zijn poëzie wordt Bowles misschien meer gevierd om zijn kritische werk. Zijn editie van de werken van Alexander Pope, vergezeld van een essay, introduceerde duidelijke principes met betrekking tot poëtische beeldspraak. Deze kritische houding veroorzaakte een aanzienlijk debat, waarbij de opvattingen over wat natuurlijke versus kunstmatige poëtische expressie inhield, scherp werden gecontrasteerd.
