THE ENGLISH ROMANTICS:
BRITISH ROMANTICISM AND THE ENLIGHTENMENT
Until 1 July (postmark) I will accept proposals for the English
Romantics Panel of the 10th Annual Central New York Conference on
Language and Literature to be held the 29-31 October 2000 at Cortland
College of the State University of New York.
The panel will organize around relationships between British Romanticism
and Enlightenment thinking. I am particularly interested in papers that
look at space: geography, maps, home, garden, countryside, city, nation,
walking, harbor/sea, Grand Tour, empire, museum, geology. How do
conceptions of space change and/or remain the same? Why is space
important? How does the space of painting change or stay the same
(Fuseli, Bierstadt, Turner, Friedrich, Gainsborough, Poussin, Reynolds,
Ingres, Constable, David)? Although I hope to organize this panel around
"Enlightenment spaces" and British Romanticism, I am open to papers on
any aspect of the Enlightenment in relation to British Romanticism.
This is a congenial and internationally attended conference.
Please send proposals for (or complete 9-page) 15 minute presentations
