Beskrivning
Romanticism is multifaceted, and a wide range of nostalgic, emotional, and exotic concerns were expressed in such styles and movements as the Gothic Revival, Classical Revival, Orientalism, and the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Some movements were regional and subject-specific, such as the Hudson River School of landscape painting in the United States and the German Nazarene movement, which focused primarily on religious art in Rome. The movements range across Western Europe and include the United States. This dictionary will provide a fuller historical context for Romanticism and enable the reader to identify major trends and explore artists of the period.This second edition of Historical Dictionary of Romantic Art and Architecture contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 300 cross-referenced entries on major artists of the romantic era as well as entries on related art movements, styles, aesthetic philosophies, and philosophers. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Romantic art.

Palmer (Univ. of Oklahoma) adds more artist and style entries, works of art, and bibliographic entries to this second edition of Historical Dictionary for Romantic Art and Architecture. This edition bills itself as “revised and expanded” from the first edition (CH, Dec'11, 49-1808), and Palmer has indeed added more than 100 pages to its predecessor. Most notable is the increase in the number of images and bibliographic entries. Following a brief chronology of the formative events of the Romantic period, which spanned the period from the early 18th century to late 19th century, is an extensive introduction that provides enough context on Romanticism to help readers understand the succeeding entries. . . those who do not own the first should consider obtaining the second, because the dictionary will be useful for those in the beginning stages of researching Romantic era art history. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower- and upper-division undergraduates; graduate students.
