Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brings Romanticism into dialogue with current understandings of consciousness With 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 remap 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.
