Romanticism's Debatable Lands

Editat de C. Lamont, M. Rossington
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 apr 2007
This book uses the theme of 'debatable lands', to explore aspects of writing in the Romantic period. Walter Scott brought it to a wider public, and the phrase came to be applied to debates which were intellectual, political or artistic. These debates are pursued in a collection of essays grouped under the headings such as 'Britain and Ireland'.
