Romanticism and Form gives a snapshot of what and where the recent revival of formalism in Romantic Studies is up to, offering new analyses of canonical texts, contextualisations of
Romantic forms in relation to war, nationalism, propaganda and empire, reassessments of neglected and marginalised writers and new explorations of the relationship between form and reader.
The volume showcases a range of new approaches to form that are distanced from New Criticism but informed by deconstruction, new historicism, feminism, theology and new technology.
