Nineteenth-Century Literary Realism
A challenging rethinking of traditional theories, and redefinition of the genre, of realism.
Constellations of a Contemporary Romanticism
Constellations of a Contemporary Romanticism takes its title and point of departure from Walter Benjamin’s concept of the historical constellation, which puts both “contemporary” and “romanticism” in play as period designations and critical paradigms. Featuring fascinating and diverse contributions by an international roster of distinguished scholars working in and out of romanticism—from deconstruction to new historicism, from queer theory to postcolonial studies, from visual culture to biopolitics—this volume makes good on a central tenet of Benjamin’s conception of history: These critics “grasp the constellation” into which our “own era has formed with a definite earlier one.” Each of these essays approaches romanticism as a decisive and unexpired thought experiment that makes demands on and poses questions for our own time: What is the unlived of a contemporary romanticism? What has romanticism’s singular untimeliness bequeathed to futurity? What is romanticism’s contemporary “redemption value” for painting and politics, philosophy and film?
The Correspondence of Dante Gabriel Rossetti
Represents the collection of extant Rossetti correspondence, a primary witness to the range of ideas and opinions that shaped Gabriel Rossetti's art and poetry. This work features known surviving letters, a total of almost 5,800 to over 330 recipients, and includes 2,000 letters by Rossetti and selected letters to him.
Index of English Literary Manuscripts, 1800-1900
This collection locates and describes the surviving manuscripts of six British 19th century writers - Hardy, Hazlitt, Hopkins, Keats, Kipling and Lamb. As a research tool, the work contributes to the study of primary sources of English literature. The information has been gathered by personal scrutiny of the manuscripts rather than via secondary sources. An introductory essay to each author summarizes the history, special features and problems presented by the manuscripts, making reference to the standard edition of his or her works, and gives brief information on manuscripts of a non-literary nature.

John Keats
At the heart of this 'Literary Life' are fresh interpretations of Keats's most loved poems, alongside other neglected but rich poems. The readings are placed in the context of his letters to family and friends, his medical training, radical politics of the time, his love for Fanny Brawne, his coterie of literary figures and his tragic early death.
