The age of British Romanticism was a period of turbulent transition between the professed stability of the Enlightenment before it and the Victorian middle-class culture which succeeded it. Against a background of international warfare, the Romantic age embodied in its greatest literature a sense of competing values and ideals explored sceptically in the creative process, rather than dogmatic certainties fulfilled in its completion. Recent scholarship has led to the rejection of the easy categories once used to label Romanticism, but until now there has been no concerted attempt to represent to students of the period the full range of conflicting forces responsible for its dynamic literature. The eleven original essays which make up this volume make a significant contribution to our understanding of the period, providing readers with clear and coherent access to the historical roots, intellectual ferment, and cultural range of British Romanticism. It includes a chronology of major publications and events, and an extensive guide to further reading. 410 0$aCambridge companions to literature. 606 $aEnglish literature$y19th century$xHistory and criticism$xHandbooks, manuals, etc 606 $aRomanticism$zGreat Britain$xHandbooks, manuals, etc 606 $aEnglish literature$y18th century$xHistory and criticism$xHandbooks, manuals, etc 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism$xHandbooks, manuals, etc. 615 0$aRomanticism$xHandbooks, manuals, etc. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism$xHandbooks, manuals, etc. 676 $a820.9/145 702 $aCurran$b Stuart 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996216712203316 996 $aCambridge companion to british Romanticism$9567383 997 $aUNISA
