Ranging across literature, theater, history, and the visual arts,
this collection of essays by leading scholars in the field explores
the range of places where British Romantic-period sociability
transpired. The book considers how sociability was shaped by place,
by the rooms, buildings, landscapes and seascapes where people
gathered to converse, to eat and drink, to work and to find
entertainment. At the same time, it is clear that sociability
shaped place, both in the deliberate construction and configuration
of venues for people to gather, and in the way such gatherings
transformed how place was experienced and understood. The essays
highlight literary and aesthetic experience but also range through
popular entertainment and ordinary forms of labor and leisure.
