A Handbook of Romanticism Studies cover

The Handbook to Romanticism Studies is an accessible and indispensible resource providing students and scholars with a rich array of historical and up-to-date critical and theoretical contexts for the study of Romanticism.

  • Focuses on British Romanticism while also addressing continental and transatlantic Romanticism and earlier periods
  • Utilizes keywords such as imagination, sublime, poetics, philosophy, race, historiography, and visual culture as points of access to the study of Romanticism and the theoretical concerns and the culture of the period
  • Explores topics central to Romanticism studies and the critical trends of the last thirty years

“A Handbook of Romanticism Studiesis an engaging and exciting collection of essays edited by Joel Faflak and Julia M. Wright. Organised around a set of key terms – including ‘imagination’, and ‘poetics’, as well as ‘race’, ‘gender’, ‘drama’, ‘satire’, and ‘science’, – the volume charts the ‘sea changes’ that Romanticism studies has undergone during the last thirty years (p.6). . . In its declared endeavour ‘to help the reader through this renovated and diverse field’ (p.6), A Handbook is unquestionably successful.”  (Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies, 25 November 2015)
