With remarkable clarity and warmth, Hearn introduces Japanese students — and readers at large — to the rich aesthetic world of the Pre-Raphaelite movement, offering incisive readings of poets such as Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Christina Rossetti, William Morris, and Algernon Charles Swinburne. Written in an accessible yet intellectually rigorous tone, the text illustrates how these Victorian poets broke from academic convention to champion beauty, medievalism, and sensory richness in verse. Hearn argues with characteristic passion that the Pre-Raphaelites represent a vital and transformative force in English poetry, one whose influence extended far beyond their own era. The result is an enduring guide that bridges Eastern and Western literary sensibilities, making it an invaluable resource for students of Victorian poetry and admirers of Hearn's uniquely cross-cultural critical voice.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48839392362715,"sku":"2026770000262-SECONDHAND","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/3a2ea83d-e869-4354-952e-f06c9e844bbe.png?v=1780561514","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026770000262-secondhand-pre-raphaelite-and-other-poets","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
