Abstract
Dylan Thomas’ poetry projects the inheritance of Romanticism. Thomas’ legacy of Romanticism focuses on the issues of personal feelings, celebration of imagination, memory and nature. He has a tendency to idealize past experiences. As these issues regard the ethos of Romantic tradition, he shows double consciousness by brushing up the dichotomy between the world of innocence and the world of experience.
