Feeling, Nature, the Individual

Captions available

The idea

The Romantic writers turned toward strong feeling, the natural world, childhood, and the single perceiving mind. Unit seven worked Keats on the nightingale and on autumn, and Blake on the sunflower and the rose. Those subjects are the band's second half in miniature.

In practice

Feeling, nature, childhood, the self.

Where people slip

Unit seven already worked them.
