Crawford examines the intriguing relationship between poetry and landscape in eighteenth- and early-nineteenth-century Britain. She examines the fraught parliamentary enclosure movement, which closed off the last of England's open fields between 1760 and 1815, taking enclosure as a metaphor for a reconceptualisation of the aesthetics of space in the period.
