'This excellent and timely collection brings together prominent scholars of Romantic and Victorian culture to challenge and enrich our understanding of both. Ranging across biography, poetry, the novel, visual art and more, the volume offers a rich and varied picture of Romanticism's powerful and pervasive presence throughout the Victorian period. With a great deal to offer Romanticists and Victorianists alike, Romantic Echoes in the Victorian Era significantly enhances our view of the ideological and aesthetic dynamics of nineteenth-century British culture'. Alan Rawes, University of Manchester, UK ’So, this is a book that distinctively reworks and deepens our understanding of the interrelations of the Romantic and Victorian periods. As a collection it will remain of great interest to scholars of both periods, as well as offering an accomplished model of critical writing that works on a case basis to illuminate, often with verve and imagination, the larger historical, cultural, and literary issues associated with the long nineteenth century.’ Journal of British Studies ’Taken together, the essays collected here highlight the diverse influence of Romanticism on Victorian authors and audiences, adding usefully to existing scholarship in the field. This volume offers fresh insights that productively reshape critical notions of influence through close intertextual readings.’ Keats-Shelley Journal
