Maria Schoina

Romantic 'Anglo-Italians' (eBook, PDF)

Configurations of Identity in Byron, the Shelleys, and the Pisan Circle

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Focusing on key members of the Pisan Circle, Byron, the Shelleys, and Leigh Hunt, Maria Schoina explores configurations of identity and the acculturating practices of British expatriates in post-Napoleonic Italy. British Romanticism's relations to its European 'others' are inextricably linked to the period's social and political contexts, a recognition that results in fresh readings of the Pisan Circle's Italianate writings. Mary Shelley is given a prominent role as retrospective constructor of the Anglo-Italian group.
