OverviewBritish Romanticism and Denmark shows how the articulation in British Romantic-period writing of the idea of a 'Northern' cultural identity shared by Britain and Denmark and rooted in the Classical Scandinavian past played an important role in the emergence and development of Romanticism and Romantic nationalism in both countries. By addressing a wide range of Nordic as well as Anglophone scholarship, this study offers new perspectives on British, Danish and European Romanticisms, and on the relationship between them.

Table of ContentsReviews"By opening access to an archive of partly forgotten texts, this thorough and well-researched book has the power to reframe with new accounts the much-discussed topics of nationhood, history and Romanticism. Duffy's study of the British engagement with Denmark through the late enlightenment and early Romantic periods widens the perspective on a Nordic allegiance in British literary Romanticism. It also prompts further investigation of the British impact and influence on Danish literature of the same period.--Marie-Louise Svane, University of Copenhagen ""Review 19"" Written in a clear, engaging style and scrupulously researched, this fascinating study maps hitherto largely neglected British engagements with Denmark between the 1770s and 1820s. Recovering unfamiliar material, the book sheds new light on the cultural history of Britain during the Romantic period and is an important addition to ongoing scholarship on border-crossing interactions between individual national romanticisms. --Lis M�ller, Aarhus University" Author InformationCian Duffy is professor and chair of English literature at Lund University, Sweden.
