First published in 1992. Beyond Romanticism represents a
substantial challenge to traditional views of the Romantic period
and provides a sustained critique of 'Romantic ideology'. The
debates with which it engages had previously been under-represented
in the study of Romanticism, where the claims of history had never
had quite the same status as they have had in other periods, and
where confidence in poetic literary value remains high. Individual
essays examine the philosophical underpinnings of Romantic
discourse; they survey analogous and competing discourses of the
period such as mesmerism, Hellenism, orientalism and nationalism;
and analyse both the manifestations of Romanticism in particular
historical and textual moments, and the texts and modes of writing
which have been historically marginalized or silenced by 'the
Romantic'. This title will be of interest to students of
literature.
