Andrew Marvell, Biography and Introductory Remarks

Andrew Marvell is the third of the major metaphysical poets we look at on this course. He is very much of a transitional figure however, and shows the influence of both the Cavalier and Metaphysical forebears, making him a unique figure and great in his own right.
I observe some of the neo-Platonic features and take some time to distinguish Marvell from the Romantic poets who similarly appeal to an idealized sense of 'nature'.

Thanks Dr Masson. Very interesting discussion of the idea of Nature and its link to the Stoics.
