War in British Romantic Literary Scholarship

[From article] But for almost a century since Henry Beers’s History of English Romanticism in the Eighteenth Century (New York, 1899), the mainlines of literary scholarship, criticism, and popular thought have viewed the literature of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries as one of unbraced revolutionary spirit, sensibility, the self, and transcendent imagination at the high level and, nearer earth, of daffodils, nightingales, west winds, and washing days. Indeed, Frederick Burwick’s Romanticism: Keywords (Hoboken, NJ: Wiley & Sons, 2015) lists seventy terms “frequently deliberated by critics and literary historians of the period” (x). Unlisted is War.
