Romantic reconfigurations
Content:
Material Transgressions examines how Romantic-era authors explored more capacious ideas of materiality that challenged ideologies of discrete bodies, sexed affects, and nonhuman things. The new materialist processes traced in these essays craft alternative modes of being-in-the-world that create new ways of understanding materiality both in the Romantic period and now
