About this book
Reviews
“Michael Bradshaw’s Disabling Romanticism: Body, Mind, and Text is a fine collection. … This volume is an excellent and compelling introduction to this material. … I would place this as one of the most valuable volumes to have appeared this year.” (SEL Studies in English Literature, Vol. 57 (3), 2017)
“It is also one of the first books devoted to disability studies and British Romanticism, which is surprising when one considers the wealth of material on this topic for scholars working in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. … the wide range of its essays show the importance of both physical and cognitive disability to British Romanticism. I hope this book will stimulate more sustained work on its topic, including monographs on Romanticism from the perspective of disability studies.” (Karen Bourrier, Review 19, nbol-19.org, 2017)
“Disabling Romanticism, edited by Michael Bradshaw, is an outstanding piece of scholarship and contributes mightily to both disability studies in the Humanities and studies in Romanticism. The scrutiny brought to both canonical and under-appreciated Romantic texts is thorough and penetrating; the quality of writing in every chapter is superb; and the arguments presented are persuasive and compelling. Disabling Romanticism builds on and extends in a significant way the work of Helen Deutsch, Lennard Davis, David Mitchell, Sharon Snyder, and Chris Mounsey, among others.” (Chris Gabbard, University of North Florida, USA)
