Each chapter seems to follow the Keatsian maxim to load every rift with ore...[T]he richness of the book is finally one of its strengths, making it a storehouse of insights and ideas. Throughout, the readings are scrupulous, imaginative, and far-reaching. (The engagement with the performativity of romantic writing in Part II is especially rewarding.) With its scholarly range, critical acumen, and theoretical ambition, The Rhetoric of Romantic Prophecy makes an important contribution to the study of Romanticism, textuality, and the prophetic word. -- South Atlantic Review [The Rhetoric of Romantic Prophecy ] usefully recontextualizes some of the major poems and texts of the British and German Romantic movements by reminding us of the historical importance of biblical hermeneutics . . . [T]he book's most impressive accomplishment is to demonstrate the high philosophical, theological, and ideological states of arguments about voice, authority, and figurative language and thereby to recover for us a Romanticism that is not simply a thing of the past.
