A propos de cet article

First Edition. Hardback. 8vo. pp xi, 442. The first year of publication. It ran until 1825. Adam Matthews publications have recently reprinted the series (of which this is the first year) and find it "a fascinating but relatively untapped source for Romantic Studies - [it] offers scholars the opportunity to dip into a wide range of contemporary periodicals - helping to identify the preoccupations of the period and to gauge tastes.

[also]poetry by lesser-known and anonymous writers, helping scholars to place the well-known verse of leading writers in a broader context. This includes many significant contributions by women writers, ÉIn his introduction to the first volume, editor Stephen Jones chronicles the pronounced shift in sensibility that brought about the rise of Romanticism: he describes his era as Òa period when the collision of political parties, and the momentous incidents of the war, and of the French Revolution, began to elicit stronger flashes of wit, and satire, from the mind of genius, than had been produced for a long time before.Ó He asserts the importance of the essays and writings included in the Spirit of the Public Journals in the dawning of this new and different cultural movement. Themes such as the romance of the landscape, sensibility, Gothicism, Orientalism, natural history writing and war poetry can be explored against this wide political backdrop." Soundly bound in contempoary full tree calf leather unlettered at the spine with marbled boards. Some faint rubbing else ound very good indeed with clean text.…
