About audio and ebooks
Susan Dean uses Hardy’s own metaphor鈥攖he diorama of a dream鈥攖o interpret The Dynasts, his largest and last major composition. She shows that the poem presents a model of the human mind. In that mind is enacted an event (the war with Napoleon) and, simultaneously, the watching of that event.
The author provides a reading of the poem in visual-dramatic terms, using the diorama stage as the vehicle for the poet’s field of vision. She then defines various visual dimensions, the relationships between them, and the various ways in which they can be seen and understood. Her interpretation draws on Hardy’s autobiography and critical essays.
Originally published in 1977.
