Summary

In the Romantic period's economics of "fiat" money the legacy of romanticism involves absolutist gestures of verbal fiat. Focused on William Wordsworth, but in constant range of his poet-successors and modern critics,Romantic Fiatpresents an argument for a double romantic signature of "let there be" and "let be."
