What does Wollstonecraft recommend in On Poetry

a shift in poetic practice - new poetry must combine sensibility and understanding - must undergo primitivist linguistic turn, recouncing the artificiality of poetic diction imitating words and phrases not nature.

Wants a poetry “of immediate sensation and sensibility, a poetry in which sensibility incorporates prior thought spontaneously”

“Understanding is now to feed feeling”
