How would you describe this in layman's terms? Truth be told, I don't know what to make of it other than this dissertation having to do with critiquing capitalism through speculative thinking.
My dissertation is on fantasies of limitless energy in the transatlantic Romantic imagination from 1760-1860. My goal is to write a prehistory of metabolic rift, Marx's term for the disruption of energy circuits caused by industrialization under capitalism. I am particularly interested in theories of the imagination and poetry as interpreted through a Marxian lens in order to update and propose an alternative to historicist ideological critiques of the Romantic imagination.

I'm still unsure what this paragraph actually means.

It seems to me to be a Marxist defense of the Romantic respect for nature contrasted with the exploitation of natural resources by the industrial societies of the era.
