This international conference represents a significant opportunity to take
stock of the orthodoxy within which, or against which, Romanticists have
been writing for the last quarter of a century. How have New Historicist
approaches shaped our understanding of – for example – gender, authorship,
canon formation, editorial issues, and the relationship between text,
culture, and politics in the Romantic period?
Delegates are invited to submit 250-word abstracts of papers exploring any
aspect of our response to Romanticism’s engagement with history. We welcome
a variety of critical approaches to the subject. Deadline for abstracts: 15
March 2004. Do not hesitate to contact either of the organisers for more
information.
