"The scholars involved in this volume are some of the best respected Romanticists of their generation and most have been developing their theories of periodization for the last several decades through conferences and in print. ... the powerful readings offered by this volume can and should inspire Romanticists to revisit the Regency, to test and contest, develop and help remake the narrative of Romanticism. As such, this volume is a welcome and valuable gift to future scholarship on the period." (J. Andrew Hubbell, Review 19, nbol-19.org, February, 2017)
