SWINBURNE, “HERTHA,” AND THE VOICE OF LANGUAGE
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 September 2008
Extract
This soaring passage comes from Max Müller's celebrated 1855 essay on linguistic anthropology. I start with it because no brief text better captures the import of Swinburne's poetic manifesto “Hertha.” And “Hertha” is important because, like “Anactoria,” it is pivotal in Swinburne's ambitious poetic program.
