Brings Romanticism into dialogue with current understandings of consciousnessOffers the first edited volume in five decades to tackle the problem of consciousnessFeatures a mix of established and new voices in the field of RomanticismBrings the dialogue between the period and consciousness up to date in an approachable styleWith 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.
