Reviews
Reviews'This new resource is both enjoyable and thoroughly thought-provoking-and so is well worth consultation by faculty and students.' Sean Williams, European Romantic Review 'Transgressive Romanticism engages its central spatial metaphor to make Hoffmann's complex potential as a protorealist clear: expertly attuned to the forms of life and literature with which he was familiar, while always ready to subvert and think beyond them.' Polly Dickson, German Studies Review
