The Imaginal Reaction to Poetry: The Affective and the Aesthetic Judgment is a book written by June Etta Downey in 1911. This book explores the emotional and aesthetic responses that people have to poetry. Downey argues that poetry is not just a collection of words, but a powerful medium that can evoke strong emotional reactions in readers. She also discusses the different ways that people judge poetry, including the affective judgment, which is based on personal feelings and emotions, and the aesthetic judgment, which is based on objective criteria such as form and structure. The book is a seminal work in the field of literary criticism and continues to be studied by scholars today. It is a must-read for anyone who is interested in the power of poetry and the ways that it affects us emotionally and aesthetically.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
