Madness has long been strongly associated with the visionary power for which poets can be valued; and during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, the conception of poetic excellence shifted to make madness seem a condition for achieving it. We examine conceptions of enabling madness in Cowper, Blake, Wordsworth, Coleridge and Clare.
