Behind Our Eyes 3: A Literary Sunburst: A Literary Sunburst

‘Eternity is in love with the productions of time’. This original edited volume takes William Blake’s aphorism as a basis to explore how British Romantic literature creates its own sense of time. It considers Romantic poetry as embedded in and reflecting on the march of time, regarding it not merely as a reaction to the course of events between the late-eighteenth and mid-nineteenth centuries, but also as a form of creative engagement with history in the making.The authors offer a comprehensive overview of the question of time from a literary perspective, applying a diverse range of critical approaches to Romantic authors from William Blake and Percy Shelley to John Clare and Samuel Rodgers. Close readings uncover fresh insights into these authors and their works, including Frankenstein, the most familiar of Romantic texts.Revising current thinking about periodisation, the authors explore how the Romantic poetics of time bears witness to the ruptures and dislocations at work within chronological time. They consider an array of topics, such as ecological time, futurity, operatic time, or the a-temporality of Venice. As well as surveying the Romantic canon’s evolution over time, these essays approach it as a phenomenon unfolding across national borders. Romantic authors are compared with American or European counterparts including Beethoven, Irving, Nietzsche and Beckett.Romanticism and Time will be of great value to literary scholars and students working in Romantic Studies. It will be of further interest to philosophers and historians working on the connections between philosophy, history and literature during the nineteenth century.

The Literary Quiz

Bästsäljare är böcker som säljer i stora upplagor, som får ett stort antal läsare och är omtalade i medier och bland läsare. Trots att bästsäljare kan anses vara den mest synliga litteraturen på bokmarknaden har forskning om hur de skapas, framställs och mottas varit begränsad, likaså forskning kring bästsäljares kulturella och sociala betydelse. I forskningsantologin Hype är bästsäljaren som fenomen i fokus, inte minst utifrån perspektivet att populära berättelser bevisligen spelar stor roll för miljoner läsare. Bästsäljaren, betraktad som ett globalt fenomen, befinner sig i ett kraftfält mellan producenter och konsumenter, något som belyser det ömsesidiga beroendet mellan kultur, marknad och individ. Antologin behandlar en rad olika frågor som hänger samman med bästsäljande skönlitteratur såsom hur hajp skapas, bokmarknadens utveckling och fokus på stora böcker , författarens position i det samtida mediala landskapet, historiska perspektiv och förhållandet mellan bästsäljare och forskning. ——- Bestsellers are the books that sell well, are read by large numbers of people, and are widely talked about in the media and among readers. Yet there has been little research on the creation, reception, and cultural and social significance of bestsellers. Recognizing that popular narratives play an important role in the lives of millions of readers, Hype – Bestsellers and Literary Culture looks closely at the literature so many people read. As global market phenomena, situated in between the power spheres of producers and consumers, bestsellers also highlight the interdependency of culture, market, and the individual. This volume addresses such diverse questions as the creation of hype, the role and the meaning of the author in the present-day media landscape, changes in the book trade, historical perspectives on bestselling literature, and the relationship between bestsellers and literary research.
