Geoffrey Hartman: Romanticism after the Holocaust offers the first
comprehensive critical account of the work of the American literary
critic Geoffrey Hartman. The book aims to achieve two things:
first, it charts the whole trajectory of Hartman's career (now more
than half a century long) while playing close attention to the
place of his career in broader cultural and intellectual contexts;
second, it engages with contemporary discussions about ecology,
ethics, trauma, the media, and community in order to argue that
Hartman's work presents a surprisingly consistent and original
position in current debates in literary and cultural studies.
Vermeulen identifies a persistent belief in the potency of
aesthetic mediation at the heart of Hartman's project, and shows
how his work repeatedly reasserts that belief in the face of
institutional, cultural and intellectual factors that seem to deny
the singular importance of literature. The book allows Hartman to
emerge as a major literary thinker whose relevance extends far
beyond the domains of Romanticism, of literary theory, and of
trauma studies.
