Romanticism on the Road challenges critical orthodoxy by arguing that Wordsworth rejected the political dogmas of his age. Refusing to ally with either radicals or conservatives after the French Revolution, the poet seizes on vagrants to attack the binary thinking dominating public affairs and to question the value of the Georgian domestic ideal. Drawing on current and historical discussions of homelessness, the study offers a cultural history of vagrancy and explains why Wordsworth chose the homeless to bear his message.

"Americans have treated the highway as sacred space," says Primeau (English, Central Michigan U.) introducing the rich tradition of prose and non-fiction road narratives that include On the Road, Grapes of Wrath, Even Cowgirls Get the Blues, and the Journals of Lewis and Clark. Primeau critically examines these and other works from the position of travel as pilgrimage resulting in identifiable themes of protest, self discovery, picaresque parody, and myth making.

The High Road situates romantic tourism in the locality best suited to display its character by studying texts that richly demonstrate relevant cultural developments and stand out as compelling intersections of history and personality. Six accounts, significant for their literary quality as well as for the largely canonical status of their authors, distinguish a span of a hundred years during which tourism, carrying various romantic overtones, became the significant feature of modernity that it remains today.

From the perspective of the mid-Twentieth Century, when the schools of "Naturalism," then "Realism," had swept "serious" literature, Ayn Rand could look back on Romanticism and discern--as even Hugo did not in full--what truly constituted its spirit and power. What was essential and what accidental, what consistent with its vital spirit and what contradictory to it.This enabled her, as she progressed from novel to novel--and the growth that occurred from We the Living to The Fountainhead to Atlas Shrugged seems astounding--to attain a Romanticism of ruthless purity that with the writing of Atlas Shrugged endowed her art with unprecedented power. See the chapter, "Ayn Rand Resuscitates Dying Romanticism."She had identified what gives Romanticism its incomparable ability to excite the imagination, lift the spirit, and inspire intense hero-worship. She mastered a literary method that rendered Atlas Shrugged and its events and heroes immortal in the minds of readers--part of an experience readers say no other fiction gave them--and made it literally life-changing. I give personal testimony to that experience in the chapter, "Incurable Atlas Fever."If in her novels she resuscitated the Romantic Revolution, she gave that movement at least a slender chance to grow against almost insurmountable cultural odds. She was able to do so by virtue of her parallel careers as a novelist and philosopher. Even as her novels became more consciously, consistently Romantic, her own philosophy emerged and became more explicit, articulate, and complete. Her hope that the future might see a rebirth of Romanticism was heard by many of us.In writing Atlas Shrugged, she determined not only to create a grand epic of the clash of values on a world stage--at levels simultaneously intimately personal, social, political, and philosophical--but at the same time to define what should be a hero's values. If, in Romantic fiction, men and women embodied the grandeur of dedication to their values, what should those values be? As she put the assignment to herself: Define a philosophy for successfully living on earth.Atlas Shrugged became perhaps the first Romantic novel in history with heroes who lived and acted not for conventionally accepted "highest values"--an era's prevailing conception of the noble--but by a philosophy and code of values originated by the author and introduced to the world in the pages of a novel. The rest is history, as a generation of mostly young readers turned the last page of Atlas Shrugged not only on fire to emulate its heroes, but possessed of an explicit exposition of the ideas that made those heroes possible.

The Twilight of Romanticsm is a fascinating account of the lives and literature of French Bohemian poets and writers of the Beat Generation in 1950's America. Beginning in 19th century France, every youth generation has developed a group of rebel artists and literary outlaws who defied the middle class conventions of their time in an attempt to create new forms of literature. These artists were the first ones to experiment with all kinds of depravity including mind-expanding drugs, insanity, excessive drinking, sexual experimentation and a chronic inability to settle down to a normal life. This book will appeal to those persons interested in the poetic visions of Bob Dylan, the sense-of-dread lyrics of Jim Morrison,the free form poetry of Allen Ginsberg, and the spontaneous prose of Jack Kerouac. In addition, Twilight offers a unique insight into the conflict between the desires of self-expression, creative artists and the utilitarian demands of a consumer-ridden, money obsessed culture.

Romantic Writing and Pedestrian Travel is an exploration of the relationship between walking and writing. Robin Jarvis here reconstructs the scene of walking, both in Britain and on the Continent, in the 1790s, and analyses the mentality and motives of the early pedestrian traveller. He then discusses the impact of this cultural revolution on the creativity of major Romantic writers, focusing especially on William and Dorothy Wordsworth, Coleridge, Clare, Keats, Hazlitt and Hunt. In readings which engage current debates around literature and travel, landscape aesthetics, ecocriticism, the poetics of gender, and the materiality of Romantic discourse, Jarvis demonstrates how walking became not only a powerful means of self-enfranchisement but also the focus of restless textual energies.

Walking and the French Romantics explores for the first time the relationship between walking and Romanticism in France. It maps this relationship as theme and practice, no social history of pedestrian tours in nineteenth-century France having been written. In this connection, the legacy of Rousseau and Senancour proves stronger than has been recognized, in spite of the pull of Paris and its legendary urban flaneurs. The author brings out the role of painters and of figures like Nodier, Didier and Dumas in encouraging writers to go (or imagine themselves) on the road and shows how and why pedestrian touring became popular with authors in the late 1830s. He discusses the impact of this fashion on major Romantic writers such as Nerval, Sand and Hugo. Finally he describes how walking lost its particular cultural connection with Romanticism in the 1840s.

Popular anthologies hold that the Romantic Era in Great Britain ended promptly in 1832 and that the early Twentieth Century was the time of Modernism and the rejection of the Romantic in British letters. However, in Wales, just the opposite was true. This study traces the work of poets and novelists in Wales in the early- to mid-Twentieth Century who all found their poetic master to be William Wordsworth. In the early part of the century, W. H. Davies, John Cowper Powys and Huw Menai – a tramp, a mystic novelist and a coal miner – produce novels and poetry with Wordsworth as their acknowledged master. By mid-century, Idris Davies, a coal miner turned teacher, R. S. Thomas, an Anglican priest, and Leslie Norris, another teacher, are writing in the “mountainous shadow of William Wordsworth.” While the literary lights of London are leading the Modernist revolution, in Wales, the inspiration is still the English poet, Wordsworth. This study will illuminate this flare up of Romanticism, and show the way in which Romanticism re-emerges from unexpected quarters.

The Oxford Handbook of European Romanticism focuses on the period beginning with the French Revolution and extending to the uprisings of 1848 across Europe. It brings together leading scholars in the field to examine the intellectual, literary, philosophical, and political elements of European Romanticism. The volume begins with a series of chapters examining key texts written by major writers in languages including French, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Hungarian, Greek, and Polish amongst others. Then follows a second section based on the naturally inter-disciplinary quality of Romanticism, encapsulated by the different discourses with which writers of the time, set up an internal comparative dynamic. These chapters highlight the sense a discourse gives of being written knowledgeably against other pretenders to completeness or comprehensiveness of understanding, and the Enlightenment encyclopaedic project. Discourses typically push their individual claims to resume European culture, collaborating and trying to assimilate each other in the process. The main examples featuring here are history, geography, drama, theology, language, geography, philosophy, political theory, the sciences, and the media. Each chapter offers original and individual interpretation of individual aspects of an inherently comparative world of individual writers and the discursive idioms to which they are historically subject. Together the forty-one chapters provide a comprehensive and unique overview of European Romanticism.
