Wordsworth, Blake, Coleridge and Keats were deeply interested in how perception and sensory experience operate. Noel Jackson tracks this preoccupation through the Romantic period and beyond, both in relation to late eighteenth-century human sciences, and in the context of momentous social transformations in the period of the French Revolution.
