Summary

Romantic biography lives. Despite the so-called 'death of the author', popular interest in the lives of the major Romantic writers has reached a new peak. Romantic Biography examines a range of canonical and non-canonical biographical subjects from a variety of practical and theoretical standpoints, bringing together Romantic biographers and critics to consider some of the key questions surrounding this publishing phenomenon. What precisely is Romantic biography? What is the relationship between it and Romantic writings more generally? And to what extent is Romantic biography itself the product of Romantic ideas about the self, time and creativity? Romantic Biography is a major new survey of Romantic life-writing and an important contribution to biographical studies more generally.
