The Politics of Language in Romantic Literature

Viac o knihe

The book explores the interplay between Romantic literature and philological theory during the late-eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. It challenges the notion that philology was irrelevant to Romantic authors, proposing a revised understanding of the intellectual and political landscapes that shaped Romantic thought. By analyzing both canonical and non-canonical texts, it reveals how these fields influenced each other and contributed to the development of Romantic consciousness.
