In this pioneering study, Elizabeth Helsinger reframes lyric poetry as a social form. Taking nineteenth-century poetry as her focus, she explores varied historical and philosophical contexts to address the question of when and why poets adopt conversational forms, and how doing so might ultimately expand readers' ethical and political horizons.
