About this book
Reviews
"Schoenfield thrillingly immerses us in the realm of romantic era periodicals, and reveals how they ushered in new forms of personal identity. This masterful study should be required reading for anyone interested in the intersection of politics and literature. The book as a whole stands as a model of impressively erudite but also totally engaging scholarship. I especially admired Schoenfield s bravura in reading Byron s embattled relationship with the reviewers." - Judith Pascoe, Professor of English, University of Iowa and author of The Hummingbird Cabinet: A Rare and Curious History of Romantic Collectors
"British Romanticism invented the modern media - the literary lower empire of magazines and reviews explored in Schoenfield s new book. In a series of supple, vivid case studies, Schoenfield tracks the forging of literary identity in the Romantic culture wars. He shows us a noisier, funnier, bloodier Romanticism than we have been used to, and it will never look the sameagain." - Ian Duncan, Department of English, University of California, Berkeley
"British Periodicals and Romantic Identity offers an impressively wide-ranging and compellingly detailed analysis of how a complex interplay of print voices at once shaped and resisted Romantic notions of selfhood." - Kim Wheatley, Associate Professor, English Department, College of William and Mary
