Byromania and the Birth of Celebrity Culture
From what I understand, this is sort of the flagship of the close-reading/ new critical movement. As one might guess, it is full of polemical stuff about how one should value a poem as a poem and how one ought to recognize and appreciate the complexity and unity of poems, especially their imagery. That said, the readings of the poems in the book are really strong and help one's appreciation of them, even if they do seem a little-- shall we say-- self-involved.
Do I wish I was as smart as Cleanth Brooks? Very yes.
