Romanticism History and the Possibilities of Genre by Tilottama Rajan, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Romanticism has often been associated with lyric poetry, or otherwise confined within mainstream genres. As a result, we have neglected the sheer diversity and generic hybridity of a literature that ranged from the Gothic novel to the national tale, from monthly periodicals to fictionalized autobiography. In this new volume some of the leading scholars of the period explore the relationship between ideology and literary genre from a variety of theoretical perspectives. The introduction offers a fresh examination of how genre was rethought by Romantic criticism. | Romanticism History and the Possibilities of Genre by Tilottama Rajan, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
