Description
The Romantic period was one of the most creative, intense and turbulent periods of English literature, an age marked by revolution, reaction and reform in politics, and by the invention of imaginative literature in its distinctively modern form.
This History presents an engaging account of six decades of literary production around the turn of the nineteenth century.
Reflecting the most up-to-date research, the essays are designed both to provide a narrative of Romantic literature and to offer new and stimulating readings of the key texts.
One group of essays addresses the various locations of literary activity – both in England and, as writers developed their interests in travel and foreign cultures, across the world.
A second set of essays traces how texts responded to great historical and social change.
With a comprehensive bibliography, timeline and index, this volume is an important resource for research and teaching in the field.
