Innovatively extending counterfactual thought experiments from
history and the social sciences to literary historiography,
criticism and theory, Counterfactual Romanticism reveals the ways
in which the shapes of Romanticism are conditioned by that which
did not come to pass. Exploring various modalities of
counterfactual speculation and inquiry across a range of
Romantic-period authors, genres and concerns, this collection
offers a radical new purchase on literary history, on the
relationship between history and fiction, and on our historicist
methods to date - and thus on the Romanticisms we (think we) have
inherited. Counterfactual Romanticism provides a ground-breaking
method of re-reading literary pasts and our own reading presents;
in the process, literary production, texts and reading practices
are unfossilised and defamiliarised. -- .
