    • 33. Lyrical Ballads: 1805 Edition
      Sep 28 2022
      Don't call it a comeback: Claude and Dan return after a lengthy hiatus with... Lyrical Ballads! But THIS is Wordsworth's extensively revised, reordered, and largely de-Coleridged 1805 edition. We go deep teasing out Wordsworth's tangled erotic sentiment, discuss the place of the Americas in the Old World imagination, and arrive at some final thoughts on Wordsworth's poetics. In our typical fashion, we discover what all this has to do with Mayberry and William Faulkner.

    • 32. Lyrical Ballads: Tintern Abbey
      Dec 21 2021

      And we come to the conclusion of our read of the first version of Lyrical Ballads. Want to know what Claude has been on about for the past few years with the term ontological/epistemological crisis? Here’s your answer with a close exploration of Wordsworth’s “Tintern Abbey,” the poem that closes the volume.

    • 31. Lyrical Ballads: William Wordsworth
      Nov 22 2021

      In this episode, Claude and Dan continue their journey into Lyrical Ballads and cover the varied sallies of William Wordsworth. Excerpts from uncompleted plays, touching ghost story poems, further streetside harangues from beaten down people, there’s something for everyone and always a lot more going on than it seems at first blush! Claude explores Wordsworth’s place among the Romantics and Dan is moved to wax poetic about the public recycling drop-off by the high school football stadium.
