Romanticism and Consciousness, Revisited
Edinburgh University Press (Verlag)
9781474485104 (ISBN)
With explosive interest in Romantic science and theories of mind and a renewed sense of the period’s porousness to the world, along with new developments in cognitive theory and research, Romantic studies scholars have been called to revisit and re-map the terrain laid out in the highly influential 1970 volume Romanticism and Consciousness. Romanticism and Consciousness, Revisited brings this shift in approach to Romantic “consciousness”—no longer the possession of a sole self but transactional, social, and entangled with the outside world—up to date.
Richard C. Sha is Professor of Literature and Affiliate Professor of Philosophy at American University in Washington, DC. He is the author of Imagination and Science in Romanticism (Johns Hopkins UP, 2018), which won the Jean-Pierre Barricelli Prize in 2018. In 2020, the National Endowment for the Humanities of the United States selected this book as one of twelve books in the humanities to fund for open access publication. His previous books include Perverse Romanticism (Johns Hopkins UP, 2008) and with Joel Faflak, Romanticism and the Emotions (Cambridge UP, 2016). Joel Faflak is Professor of English and Theory at the University of Western Ontario. He is author of Romantic Psychoanalysis: The Burden of the Mystery (SUNY, 2008), co-author (with Ross Woodman) of Revelation and Knowledge: The Psyche in Romanticism (U of Toronto Press, 2011), and editor or co-editor of numerous essay collections and anthologies, most recently Romanticism and the Emotions (Cambridge UP, 2016), with Richard C.
