With the rise of New Criticism in the 1930s, genre criticism has been neglected. The importance of the individual poem has led to ignoring the context or labeling process of poems which share a group of common characteristics in form and purpose. The English ode in particular is a much neglected genre. Yet, the so-called masterpieces of the Romantic period, Wordsworth's ""Intimations Ode,"" Coleridge's ""Dejection,"" Keats's ""Ode on a Grecian Urn"" are odes, and the Romantics, however experimental they may have been said to be, are very conscious of genre and very cautious about labeling their poems. In nine chapters I trace the poet's Self fashioning in the ode by pairing mid-eighteenth-century odes with Romantic odes. This approach diminishes the gap between two literary periods which have been considered mutually exclusive (the Age of Sensibility and the Romantic Period), and it affirms the centrality of the ode to both the poet of Sensibility and the Romantic poet without solely attributing its use to genius in the case of the latter."
