摘要：This book is an important addition to Ashgate’s Nineteenth Century series, containing critical and theoretical discussion of Romanticism and its relationship with Religion. The editors, Gavin Hopps and Jane Stabler, state at the outset their aim to redress secular criticism of the subject, which has been predominant for several years. Quoting Jerome McGann’s The Romantic Ideology as an example, the introductory essay addresses the problems caused by this secular viewpoint, in that it ‘presupposes a view of the world opposed to the religious’ (p. 1). Examining the work of key Romantic period figures, in what the editors term ‘a “theological turn” in postmodern thought’, the book therefore invites us to rethink general assumptions in light of broader concepts of belief (p. 8).
