Om denne bog

Offers a new, Spinozist framework for understanding encounters with otherness in Romantic literature as experiences of immanence.

Romantic Immanence examines literary examples of an alternative experience of otherness-an experience of alterity the Romantics understood as an embodied, immanent encounter with raw reality. The Romantics'' enthusiasm for encounters in nature and the imagination that exceeded the limits of rational thought is well known. Yet these encounters have largely been interpreted in terms of the sublime or the Gothic. Drawing attention to the influence of Spinozist and Stoic philosophy on Romantic thought and aesthetics, Elizabeth A. Fay argues that immanence was another, perhaps even more important, form of alterity, particularly during this era of social and political upheaval. Investigating works such as Coleridge''s Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Dorothy Wordsworth''s Grasmere Journals, and Percy Shelley''s Triumph of Life alongside Schelling''s unfinished Ages of the World and Schlegel''s Athenaeum Fragments, Fay demonstrates how Romantic immanence, despite going largely unrecognized with the loss of its initial context, remains vividly present in these works.
