Part one sets out the historical and literary backgrounds to Romanticism and investigates Romantic orientations in the cult of sensibility, the visual arts and music, print culture, science, and philosophy, and in attitudes to other cultures beyond Europe. Part two explores the various critical approaches to Romanticism, including historicist, feminist, ecological, post-colonial, and formalist perspectives. Part three looks at the diverse literary manifestations of Romanticism, with each chapter focusing on a different literary genre, from lyric poetry through to contemporary letters, diaries, and journals. The concluding section of the book traces the rich and varied legacy of Romanticism, in literature and the arts, politics and science, modernism, postmodernism, and the environmentalist movement, with a concluding chapter on Romanticism in the electronic age.
