The colour of words : crafting links between romantic poets and painters

摘要

'The colour of words: crafting links between romantic poets and painters' aims at establishing a link between English Romantic poetry and painting. Most of the attempts to find this connection have concentrated on the themes and topics shared both by painters and poets. However, this work aims to focus not only on the aesthetic philosophy but also on the similarities in artistic techniques that enabled the particular expression of an artistic vision, the Romantic Movement. For this purpose, poems and paintings have been analyzed by comparing their formal aspects.This research has focused on Wordsworth, Constable, Lord Byron, Turner and Blake as cases of study.
