This book studies and articulates the emergence from the poetical subtext of the six major English romantic poets of "the androgynous sublime," which conflates elements of the myth of the androgyne, as told by Aristophanes in Plato's Symposium, with the mode of sublimity, first discussed by a Greek scholar named Longinus, who cited the Book of Genesis as a prime example, and much debated from the 18th century onward.
