Configuring Romanticism focuses on the ways in which "Romanticism"
continues to change shape in light of new discoveries, new
readings, new approaches. To this end, some essays here gathered
offer novel interpretations of Romantic "classics" such as
Wordsworth, Blake, and Southey, or discuss the Celtic roots of
Romanticism. Others address the relationship of Romantic
literature, particularly the work of Scott, Shelley, and De
Quincey, to issues of colonialism and imperialism. Yet others trace
the "afterlife" of Romanticism and the Romantics, specifically
Byron, Shelley, and Keats, in the writings of Leigh Hunt, Elizabeth
Gaskell, James Thomson, Algernon Swinburne, William Michael
Rosetti, James Clarence Mangan, Francis Parkman, Gilbert and
Sullivan, and T.S. Eliot, as well as in Dutch nineteenth-century
criticism. The volume closes with discussions of the Romantic
aspects of World War II propaganda, twentieth-century translations
of the Aeneid in view of Romantic principles, the Romantic face of
recent Quebecois fiction, and present-day film versions of Jane
Austen's Emma.
