SoSe 15: Englische Philologie : Übung Romanticism
Herbert Klein
Comments
This seminar will focus on Romantic poetry against the background of contemporary cultural, political, and social movements. We shall question different approaches towards what is supposed to constitute Romanticism by widening the historical perspective both forward and backward. Rather than concentrating on 'big names' we shall try to understand different aspects through approaching the topic from different angles.
As controversial as the term Romanticism is the question which poets and poems belong into the canon of Romantic poetry, so there are a number of anthologies with different selections of texts. For the purposes of this seminar, students should acquire the following anthology:
The Penguin Book of Romantic Poetry, ed. Jonathan and Jessica Wordsworth. London, 2005 (Penguin Classics).
