The persistence of Romantic thought and literary practice into the
late twentieth century is evident in many contexts, from the
philosophical and ideological abstractions of literary theory to
the thematic and formal preoccupations of contemporary fiction and
poetry. Though the precise meaning of the Romantic legacy is
contested, it remains stubbornly difficult to move beyond. This
collection of essays by prominent critics and literary theorists
was first published in 1999, and explores the continuing impact of
Romanticism on a variety of authors and genres, including John
Barth, William Gibson, and John Ashbery, while writers from the
Romantic and Victorian period include Wordsworth, Byron and Emily
Bronte. Many critics have assumed that the forms and modes of
feeling associated with the Romantic period continued to influence
the cultural history of the the first half of the twentieth
century. This was the first book to consider the mutual impact of
postmodernism and Romanticism.
