"This wide-ranging and original book reappraises the role of genre, and genre theory, in British Romanticism. Analysing numerous examples from 1760 to 1830, [author] examines the generic innovations and experiments which propel the Romantic 'revolution in literature', but also the fascination with archaic forms such as the ballad, sonnet, epic, and romance, whose revival and transformation make Romanticism a retro movement as well as a revolutionary one."--Book jacket
