dc.description.abstractIn this thesis I would like to comment about two impulses which dominate the poetic language of Wordsworth, Coleridge and Shelley. These impulses can be thought to be contradictory in that they incorporate the literal and the figurative, the logocentric and the deconstructive characteristics of language. I shall try to show that these Romantic poets believed in a language which must not be mimetic and logocentric but must also entail self-negating characteristics. However, the language of Romanticism does not fall into the extreme of becoming a projection of nothingness where it refers to a nullity.en_GB
