English Romantic Writers and the West Country de N. Roe

English Romantic Writers and the West Country

Editat de N. Roe
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 mai 2010
Long confounded with a monolithic British entity or misrepresented as 'Lakers' and 'Cockneys', the diverse regional forms of 'English Romanticism' are ripe for reassessment. Ranging west of a line between the Wye at Tintern and Jane Austen's Chawton, this book offers a first reconfiguration of Romantic culture in terms of English regional identity.

Recenzii

'This diverse and absorbing book explores some of the ways in which many of the Romantic writers, both major and minor, found a local inspiration in the West Country. Nicholas Roe's well-judged collection relates for the first time a brilliant chapter in English literary history, and vividly evokes some of its most memorable personalities.' - Seamus Perry, Balliol College, Oxford, UK
'This is a diverse, fascinating and entertaining collection...Anyone seriously interested in early literary Romanticism, the West Country's appeal to the literary imagination or in the distinctive regional varieties of literary Romanticism will want to read it.' -Coleridge Bulletin
