Beskrivning
Reimagines Romantic studies through a rich body of literary, cultural, and historical materials from Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Indigenous America, Latin America, and beyond.Working across languages, archives, and intellectual traditions, contributors to The Bloomsbury Handbook of Global Romantic Literature and Culture recover voices, histories, and forms of knowledge that have often remained peripheral to dominant accounts of what counts as "Romantic." From Haitian revolutionary thought and Caribbean indigeneity to Palestinian traditions of memory, Egyptian historiography, Cherokee and Navajo epistemologies, Zulu and Xhosa praise poetry, Persian, Urdu, Bengali, and Korean literary cultures, Russian and Chinese negotiations with empire, and Cuban engagements with Indigenous American history, these materials reveal ways of imagining historical consciousness, political life, cultural memory, and artistic production that challenge inherited vocabularies of Romanticism.Combining literary history, postcolonial critique, decolonial thought, and comparative methodology, The Bloomsbury Handbook of Global Romantic Literature and Culture resists treating the global as a matter of geographical inclusion or expansion, advancing instead a mode of reading attuned to asymmetrical relations. An essential resource for scholars and students, the volume offers a new vision of global literary history in the Romantic era and the long nineteenth century.

Recensioner i media

This book remakes the map of Romanticism, offering innovative new ways to read the early-19th-century world and its historical reverberations. Drawing on Romanticism’s inherent instability, the essays collectively present a rhizomatic reading of the 'romantic' as a way to unmake traditional methods of reading and interpreting. This powerful affirmation of the global is a particularly useful intervention at a time when that concept is under increasing attack.
