Jeffrey C. Robinson is a Romanticist with an interest in Romantic and twentieth-century avant-garde poetics. After teaching for many years at the University of Colorado, Boulder, USA, he is now an honorary senior research fellow at the University of Glasgow, Scotland. Robinson’s recent books include "Unfettering Poetry: The Fancy in British Romanticism"; "Poems for the Millennium, Volume Three: The University of California Book of Romantic and Postromantic Poetry" (coedited with Jerome Rothenberg); "Untam’d Wing: Riffs on Romantic Poetry"; and "Active Romanticism: The Radical Impulse in Nineteenth-Century and Contemporary Poetic Practice" (coedited with Julie Carr).

Robinson’s book takes on the late Wordsworth. Joining a small but noticeable chorus of scholars committed to Wordsworth’s post-1807 oeuvre, among them Tim Fulford, James M. Garrett, Alison Hickey, and Brandon C. Yen, he argues that an era of Wordsworth’s career often seen as fallow was actually productive of poetry worth reading. His methodology includes both the expected—manuscript microanalysis and book history—and the unexpected—interludes about Lake District walks and creative re-writings of primary texts. — Katherine Bergren (2020) Poetic Innovation in Wordsworth 1825–1833: Fibres of These Thoughts, European Romantic Review, 31:4, 494-500, DOI: 10.1080/10509585.2020.1775972
