520			_a"Oxford Lectures on Poetry" by A. C. Bradley is a scholarly work composed of a series of lectures that explore the nature and essence of poetry, written in the early 20th century. The lectures primarily focus on the concept of "Poetry for Poetry's Sake," discussing how poetry functions independently of its instructional or moral values. The author, a former Professor of Poetry at Oxford, delves into the intricacies of poetic experience and offers insights into how poetry conveys meaning, particularly through the interplay of form and substance. The opening of the text introduces Bradley's ideas regarding the definition of poetry and its intrinsic value. He reflects on his role as a lecturer, briefly considering his predecessors while emphasizing the importance of understanding poetry in its essence beyond conventional expectations. He articulates that poetic value is not determined by the ulterior effects or moral lessons of poetry but lies in the imaginative experience that poetry offers. This sets the stage for his deeper analysis of the nature of poetry, inviting readers to rethink the way they engage with poetic works and highlighting the transformative power of the poetic experience.
