Talk:Richard Payne Knight

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For many of us Knight is best remembered for his influence on the concept to 'picturesque' and his phallus paper is a sideshow. Don't you think that is the right weight for these two occupations of his? User:Wetman

I'm not sure what you are implying - the great majority of this entry is about his theory of the picturesque. There is only one paragraph on the phallus theory. Are you referring to sentence about what he is 'best known' for? Im happy to change that, but I think it is something distinctive to him. Knight did not create the concept of the picturesque.
