Romanticism, History, Historicism, University of Wales, Aberystwyth
18-22 June 2004
Plenary Speakers: Alan Bewell, Kenneth R. Johnston, Marjorie Levinson, Alan
Liu, Jerome J. McGann, Anne Mellor, Nicholas Roe, Susan Wolfson
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.
