Download or read book Dreams Waking Thoughts and Incidents written by William Beckford and published by . This book was released on 2017-07-10 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Dreams, Waking Thoughts and Incidents" is a series of letters composed by William Beckford as a result of a Grand Tour on the continent in 1780-81. From brief daily notes kept during this tour, Beckford composed, not simply a travel journal, but a composition which gave occasional glimpses into the inner thoughts and dreams of the author. Strangely, Beckford himself suppressed the book on its release, destroying almost 500 copies of the original print. A much modified and toned down version was finally released in 1834 incorporated in Italy; with "Sketches of Spain and Portugal". Robert Gemmett's edition in contrast is an almost verbatim copy of the original edition of 1783, and provides a compelling early glimpse into the mind of a man who was to become universally known in later life as the 'Fool of Fonthill'.
Download or read book Handbook of British Romanticism written by Ralf Haekel and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-09-11 with total page 725 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Handbook of British Romanticism is a state of the art investigation of Romantic literature and theory, a field that probably changed more quickly and more fundamentally than any other traditional era in literary studies. Since the early 1980s, Romantic studies has widened its scope significantly: The canon has been expanded, hitherto ignored genres have been investigated and new topics of research explored. After these profound changes, intensified by the general crisis of literary theory since the turn of the millennium, traditional concepts such as subjectivity, imagination and the creative genius have lost their status as paradigms defining Romanticism. The handbook will feature discussions of key concepts such as history, class, gender, science and the use of media as well as a thorough account of the most central literary genres around the turn of the 19th century. The focus of the book, however, will lie on a discussion of key literary texts in the light of the most recent theoretical developments. Thus, the Handbook of British Romanticism will provide students with an introduction to Romantic literature in general and literary scholars with a discussion of innovative and groundbreaking theoretical developments.
