Zusammenfassung:A critical re-evaluation of the imaginative transformations of Romanticism by major American writersThe study traverses the traditional critical boundaries of prose and poetry in American and Romantic and Post-Romantic writingReasserts the significance of Second-Generation Romantic writers for American literary cultureReassessing the indebtedness of major American writers to British RomanticismThis book provides innovative readings of literary works of British Romanticism and its influence on twentieth- and twenty-first-century American literary culture and thought. It traverses the traditional critical boundaries of prose and poetry in American and Romantic and post-Romantic writing. Analysing significant works by nineteenth-century writers, including Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau and Emily Dickinson, as well as the later writings of William Faulkner, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Saul Bellow, Toni Morrison and Wallace Stevens, the book reasserts the significance of second-generation Romantic writers for American literary culture. Sandy reassesses our understanding of Romantic inheritance and influence on post-Romantic aesthetics, subjectivity and the natural world in the American imagination
