This book explores the ways in which poetic inspiration came to be associated with madness in early nineteenth-century Britain. By examining the works of poets such as Barrett, Browning, Clare, Tennyson, Townshend, and the Spasmodics in relation to the burgeoning asylum system and shifting medical discourses of the period, it investigates the ways in which Britain’s post-Romantic poets understood their own poetic vocations within a cultural context that insistently linked poetic talent with illness and insanity. Joseph Crawford examines the popularity of mesmerism among the writers of the era, as an alternative system of medicine that provided a more sympathetic account of the nature of poetic genius, and investigates the persistent tension, found throughout the literary and medical writings of the period, between the Romantic ideal of the poet as a transcendent visionary genius and the ‘medico-psychological’ conception of poets as mere case studies in abnormal neurological development.

An uplifting "story" in poetry that reminds us to be comfortable with the decisions we make in enjoying life to the fullest. If a doctor gave you (and could really give you) 2 months to live, what would you do? Would you put together a list of people, places and things to see before your 60 days are up? Then have to do it all over again for another 60 days because you are the exception to the rule... or perhaps you'd not make it to the second day on your list...? A doctor cannot 'give' you time. But, hey... one thing they're right about is that one day each of us is not going to be here physically. Get over it!!! So why not start and restart celebrating your list now? You see, we often get caught up in the headlines of doom and miss the subtitles of success. This book's subtitle is "A Celebration of Life." It's not about dying... it's about living. You'll hit the ground running right after reading the last four lines of the title poem: I found out I'm dying And that I have been since Day #1 So I spend little time regretting my life Because I'd rather spend the time having fun. Sporty King is a Motivational Speaker who has used his gift of poetic expression to inspire audiences of all ages, ethnicities and genders for over a quarter of a century. King guides you through the book by 'discussing' the inspiration behind, and use for each poem for practical application toward sharing this gift of life.
