Description:

3 credits The years between 1785 and 1830 constitute a crucial period in British history. Witnessing two major revolutions, writers from this era participated in watersheds in many areas of cultural, political, and intellectual life, from the rise of Romanticism and Republicanism to nation building, to the beginnings of modern feminism. They dealt with these cultural experiences in new as well as traditional literary forms, from the historical novel to lyric and narrative poetry to essays and journals. This course will examine the lives and works of a selection of major literary figures from this period and assess their contributions to the literary tradition in English.
