Summary: Best short guide to William Blake
Comment: For someone looking for an entrance into William Blake's poetic world, the best short guide is the chapter on Blake in this book.
Bloom is more acute on Shelley, Blake and Wordsworth than on Keats and Byron. However, the definitive Keats scholar, in my opinion, has yet to appear, and Bloom's response to Byron may have been less sharp because Byron studies has been inactive for most of the past century.
The essays on more obscure Romantics (Beddoes for example) is certainly worth reading because these writers are so rarely discussed at all.
Bloom set about the revive the reputation of the High Romantics in the 60s, and this book is written against that background. It sometimes appears as if he is working too hard to explain the obvious, but that is because these things were not obvious to Eliot-influenced readers in the 60s.

Summary: bloom on the romantics . . .
Comment: Bloom ate Blake, Crane, Shakespeare, Shelley, and the rest of them before adolescence and has been digesting ever since. Even before his lifelong meal, his intellect is simply larger and sharper than anyone else's.
