Which of the following poems describe or celebrate an apocalyptic regeneration of humanity and the world effected by the creative capacity of the human mind ?
Correct answer: D. all but C
- A. Coleridge's Dejection: An Ode
- B. Blake's "Prophetic Books"
- C. Wollstonecraft's Vindication of the Rights of Woman
- D. all but C
Explanation
The intended answer groups Coleridge's “Dejection: An Ode” with Blake's Prophetic Books because both engage with imaginative renewal and the creative power of the mind. Wollstonecraft's Vindication of the Rights of Woman is a prose argument, not a poem, so “all but C” is correct.
