Romantic Parody - A Special Issue of *Romanticism On the Net* 15 (August
1999)
Following the publication in March of Graeme Stones and John Strachan=B9
*Parodies of the Romantic Age* (5 vols, Pickering & Chatto Publishers),
contributions are invited for a special issue of *Romanticism on the Net*
on =8CRomantic Parody=B9, to be published in August 1999.
1999 sees the bicentenary of the first publication of that epoch-making
collection in Romantic period parody, *Poetry of the Anti-Jacobin*, and the
new Pickering edition features the parody of the *Anti-Jacobin*, alongside
period anthologies devoted individually to verse parody and prose
parody. It also includes the first scholarly edition of the masterpiece
of late Romantic period parody, William Frederick Deacon=B9s *Warreniana*
(1824).
The special issue of *RoN* will include new essays by Kenneth R. Johnston
(on Wordsworth and the Anti-Jacobin), Steven E. Jones, John Strachan (on
post-Napoleonic advertising-related parody) and Marcus Wood (on radical
parody and satire). Contributions on all aspects of parodic writing in
the Romantic period are most welcome.
Submission deadline: 1 July 1999. For more information, please contact:
