Disabling Romanticism de Michael Bradshaw

Disabling Romanticism: Literary Disability Studies

Editat de Michael Bradshaw
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 23 iun 2016
This book investigates the presence of disability in British Romantic literature, as subject matter, as metaphorical theme, and as lived experience. It is the first collection of its kind, breaking new ground in re-interpreting key texts and providing a challenging overview of this emerging field. The collection offers both a critique of academic Romantic studies and an affirmation of the responsiveness of the Romantic canon to new stimuli. Authors discussed include William Blake, Lord Byron, Ann Batten Cristall, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, George Darley, Richard Payne Knight, William Gilpin, Mary Robinson, Mary Shelley, Robert Southey, and William Wordsworth.

Recenzii

“I read Michael Bradshaw’s edited collection Disabling Romanticism: Body, Mind, and Text with great interest. … it has only nine articles, every one of them is substantive and useful.” (Studies in English Literature 1500-1900, Vol. 57 (4), 2017)

“Michael Bradshaw’s Disabling Romanticism: Body, Mind, and Text is a fine collection. … This volume is an excellent and compelling introduction to this material. … I would place this as one of the most valuable volumes to have appeared this year.” (SEL Studies in English Literature, Vol. 57 (3), 2017) 
“It is also one of the first books devoted to disability studies and British Romanticism, which is surprising when one considers the wealth of material on this topic for scholars working in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. … the wide range of its essays show the importance of both physical and cognitive disability to British Romanticism. I hope this book will stimulate more sustained work on its topic, including monographs on Romanticism from the perspective of disability studies.” (Karen Bourrier, Review 19, nbol-19.org, 2017)
