Hullo and welcome back to Broken Oars Podcast!

As The Southern One wrestles with life and the Northern One wrestles with ... well, life too, while we look for an opportunity to recovene, the Northern One has grabbed a chunk of time to put up another Broken Oars University Episode.

This time it's on the Romantic Poets - on the grounds of why not, it's a New Year, let's get into something fresh and interesting.

But don't worry.

We'll be back to talk about rowing again soon.

So, in this part one of three, we have a chat about those crazy loons from two hundred and odd years ago who decided to start writing about feelings and perception and the inner landscape ... and who in so doing gave rise to Love Island, influencers and rampant narcissism.

We look at what the Romantics were in terms of period, poets and poetry, what they aren't, what went before them, how they self-defined and how we went on to define them.

And next week, we'll get into the poetry.

All because Stephen Graham referenced Beowulf recently.

Blame him!

Try listening to us with a coffee - and if you're feeling generous, stand us one.
