Although the correspondence of the Romantics constitutes a major literary achievement in its own right, it has received relatively little critical attention. Essays focus on the letters of major poets, including Wordsworth, Byron, Shelley and Keats; novelists and prose writers, including Jane Austen, Leigh Hunt and Charles Lamb; and lesser-known writers such as Melesina Trench and Mary Leadbeater. Moving from theories of letter writing, through the period’s diverse epistolary culture, to essays on individual writers, the collection opens new perspectives for students and scholars of the Romantic period. Madeleine Callaghan is Senior Lecturer in Romantic Literature at the University of Sheffield. Liverpool University Press published her first monograph, Shelley’s Living Artistry: The Poetry and Drama of Percy Bysshe Shelley, in 2017, and her book, The Poet-Hero in the Work of Byron and Shelley (2019) is published by Anthem Press. Anthony Howe is Reader in English Literature at Birmingham City University. His publications include Byron and the Forms of Thought (Liverpool, 2013) and The Oxford Handbook of Percy Bysshe Shelley (2013), edited with Michael O’Neill. He is currently writing a monograph about literary letter writing in the British Romantic period.Palgrave Studies in the Enlightenment, Romanticism and Cultures of Print,2634-6516Literature, Modern—18th centuryLiterature, Modern—19th centuryEighteenth-Century Literaturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/819000Nineteenth-Century Literaturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/821000Literature, Modern—18th century.Literature, Modern—19th century.Eighteenth-Century Literature.Nineteenth-Century Literature.826.509828.709Callaghan Madeleineedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtHowe Anthonyedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910484923803321Romanticism and the Letter2852856UNINA
