During the 1790s and 1800s, cultural critics became convinced that
Britain was being 'inundated' by pernicious literary translations
imported from the European Continent. British Romanticism and
Continental Influences discusses Romantic writers' complex and
ambivalent responses to this threatening literary invasion.
Confronted with foreign texts that seemed both attractive and
repulsive, Mortensen argues, Romantic writers such as Wordsworth
and Coleridge publicly distanced themselves from European
sensationalism, even as they assimilated and revised its
conventions in their own writing.
