OFFLINE | From my notes:
Blake: Was effected from the revolution, was very radical.
Wordsworth isn't realted to anything
Shelley: I have no idea. Also was in favor of the revolution...
No help, I know, I'm sorry. |

OFFLINE | Shelly had very radical ideas, but as he comes from a few years later, after the Reign of Terror he probably wouldn't associate himself with it as much. The idea yes, the actual revolution not so much. The same goes for other later Romantic poets (Byron and Keats). |

OFFLINE | Wordsworth lived the French re, he was with it at the begining and toured in France, but after the re turned radical he was against it and dismissed history from his writing (which is very political), rember he talked about the Abbie (I know it's the wrong spelling), he did not even mention the homeless people that filled the place or any other info about the history of the abbie. |
