Romanticism and Pleasure: (Nineteenth-Century Major Lives and Letters)

Series: Nineteenth-Century Major Lives and Letters

In Romanticism and Pleasure nine scholars discuss the aesthetics, culture, and science of pleasure in the Romantic period. Richard Sha, Denise Gigante, and Joel Faflak, among others, make a timely contribution to recent debates about issues of pleasure, taste, and appetite by looking anew at the work of figures such as Byron, Coleridge, and Austen.
