Opis

Sheds new light on the presence and impact of Continental European literary traditions in post-Napoleonic Britain.

Recenzje

'His book must be understood as an invitation to approach the big questions again, refreshed and renewed. This is the sort of intelligent challenge Romanticists and Romanticism needs. His excellent book is accommodating yet partial, compendious yet incomplete. It is an incitement to rethink Romanticism and its reach.' Bysshe Inigo Coffey, The Wordsworth Circle
