Romantik 5

The articles in this number of "Romantik" include new research on reverie and dream as the locus of metaphor in Percy Bysshe Shelley's "Prometheus Unbound"; an enquiry into the Royal Swedish Society for the Publication of Manuscripts Relating to Scandinavian History and the role it played in the construction of national memory and heritage; a discussion of Philippe Jacques de Loutherbourg's and John Martin's iconographies of the sublime in the intersection between art and popular visual spectacle; archival discoveries related to the publication of medieval romance in early nineteenth-century Britain; and a reassessment of "The Prelude" as a formation narrative, arguing that William Wordsworth displays a conflicted attitude to the growth and progress usually found in the "Bildungsroman". The journal also contains reviews of new books on the romantic period published in the Nordic countries.  Fil størrelse: 21845 KB
