New Critical Nostalgia Romantic Lyric and the Crisis of Academic Life


Free Download Christopher Rovee, "New Critical Nostalgia: Romantic Lyric and the Crisis of Academic Life "
English | ISBN: 1531505120 | 2024 | 272 pages | EPUB, PDF | 10 MB + 10 MB
New Critical Nostalgia weighs the future of literary study by reassessing its past. It tracks today’s impassioned debates about method back to the discipline’s early professional era, when an unprecedented makeover of American higher education with far-reaching social consequences resulted in what we might call our first crisis of academic life. Rovee probes literary study’s nostalgic attachments to this past, by recasting an essential episode in the historiography of English―the vigorous rejection of romanticism by American New Critics―in the new light of the American university’s tectonic growth. In the process, he demonstrates literary study’s profound investment in romanticism and reveals the romantic lyric’s special affect, nostalgia, as having been part of English’s professional identity all along.

Romantic Ecocriticism Origins and Legacies


Free Download Dewey W. Hall, "Romantic Ecocriticism: Origins and Legacies "
English | ISBN: 149851801X | 2016 | 310 pages | EPUB | 1073 KB
Romantic Ecocriticism: Origins and Legacies is unique due to its rare assemblage of essays, which has not appeared within an edited collection before. Romantic Ecocriticism is distinct because the essays in the collection develop transnational and transhistorical approaches to the proto-ecological early environmental aspects in British and American Romanticism. First, the edition’s transnational approach is evident through transatlantic connections such as, but are not limited to, comparisons among the following writers: William Wordsworth, William Howitt, and Henry D. Thoreau; John Clare and Aldo Leopold; Charles Darwin and Ralph W. Emerson. Second, the transhistorical approach of RomanticEcocriticism is evident in connections among the following writers: William Wordsworth and Emily Bronte; Thomas Malthus and George Gordon Byron; James Hutton and Percy Shelley; Erasmus Darwin and Charlotte Smith; Gilbert White and Dorothy Wordsworth among others. Thus, Romantic Ecocriticism offers a dynamic collection of essays dedicated to links between scientists and literary figures interested in natural history.
