Produktinformationen zu „An Oxford Companion to the Romantic Age: British Culture 1776-1832 “
For the first time, this innovative reference book surveys the Romantic Age through all aspects of British culture, rather than in literary or artistic terms alone. This multi-disciplinary approach treats Romanticism both in aesthetic terms--its meaning for painting, music, design, architecture, and literature--and as a historical epoch of "revolutionary" transformations which ushered in modern democratic and industrialized society.

Rezension zu „An Oxford Companion to the Romantic Age: British Culture 1776-1832 “
This is not only an invaluable source of information on a dazzling range of topics, but also a volume bristling with ideas - and ideals. There is an explicitly radical, polemical edge to many of the contributions, and if these essays and entries provoke the active engagement of the reader rather than merely delivering knowledge with an air of unchallengeable authority, they are more than upholding the spirit of the age that is under debate. Fiona Stafford, Review of English Studies
