- Double-weighted statement
- This monograph shows Romantic poets to be fundamentally social authors -- working closely with booksellers, intimately involved in literary production, and resolutely concerned with current readers -- even as they presented themselves as disinterested artists writing for posterity. Funded by a Huntington Library Fellowship and the product of twenty years of research and writing, the study seeks to explode the myth of Romantic poets as naive, unworldly, or unconcerned with the practical aspects of literary production, instead showing them fully engaged with copyright, profit and loss, and the power of reprinting to reshape literary reputation.
