Poets are often seen as sentimentalists who idealise reality with their romanticised perception and imagination (Caudwell, 1977: 144). However, I would argue that in the moments of poetic inspiration poets hold a neutral non-biased state of mind where they perceive an authentic and faithful aspect of reality. I will review the poets’ non-biased state, and the resulting poetic observation that document life, not idealise it, and which opens up channels of creativity.

Abstract

Poets are often seen as sentimentalists who idealise reality with their romanticised perception and imagination (Caudwell, 1977: 144). However, I would argue that in the moments of poetic inspiration poets hold a neutral non-biased state of mind where they perceive an authentic and faithful aspect of reality. I will review the poets’ non-biased state, and the resulting poetic observation that document life, not idealise it, and which opens up channels of creativity.
