Romantics and Victorians - Watson, Nicola J. (Senior Lecturer, Open University, Milton Keynes) a Towheed, Shafquat (Lecturer, Open University)

This text approaches European romanticism by considering the idea of the romantic author and the romantic inner life, with readings from Wordsworth, Shelley and de Quincey. It explores Victorian culture through a reading of ideas of 'home' and 'abroad' in Emily Bronte, Arthur Conan Doyle and Robert Louis Stevenson.
