摘　　要：To write about art and literature depicting London is often to write about Romantic poetry and novels,and to draw attention to the green and pleasant parts of the lands as hills,vales,woods,and all their rural relatives.Urban areas are often cast as dark mills,restaurants with oyster-shells,hospitals,and underground stations,for example,whilst rural places are celebrated,but their inspiration and beauty is to be found in the more civic depictions.Such poems and novels can enable us to envisage the city in a new life and even uncover the histories of a place.This paper will shed light on London in the eyes of literature,both as a civic and a cultural city,in order to draw more attention to the city as both an urban and rural place.This paper will also shed light on the great poets as William Wordsworth,John Keats,D.H.Laurence,and novelists such as Charles Dickens,Sam Selvon Salvo,and Virginia Woolf.
