- Double-weighted statement
- Romantic Englishness is a substantial monograph (c. 85,000 words) that represents sustained research effort over a period of ten years. It offers detailed analysis of ten Romantic-period authors and addresses a wide range of primary texts, contextual materials, and critical sources. Its argument about the porous, transnational nature of English masculine identity in the period could not have been made authoritatively without a lengthy and in-depth investigation of the subject.
