Abstract
|
:
|
Surveys the Romantic Age across all aspects of British culture, rather than in literary or artistic terms alone. Presents forty-two essays on major topics, by leading international experts, cross-referenced to an extensive alphabetical section covering all the principal figures, events, and movements in the broad culture of the period. Treats Romanticism both in aesthetic terms--its meaning for painting, music, design, architecture, and above all literature--and as a historical epoch of 'revolutionary' transformations which ushered in modern democratic and industrialized society.
