Many of the writers from 1819, argues James Chandler, were acutely aware not only of their writing's place in history, but also of its place as historya realization of a literary 'spirit of the age' that resonates strongly with the current 'return to history' in literary studies. Chandler explores the ties between Romantic and contemporary historicism and offers a series of cases of his own built around key texts from 1819.'1819? At first sight, it might not seem a 'hot date'; but as James Chandler argues in his powerful book, it would be a mistake to overlook a year of such exceptional political conflagration and literary pyrotechnics in British history. Chandler's study is a wideranging, enormously ambitious, densely packed, closely argued work.'John Brewer, New Republic'The book's largest argument, and the source of its considerable revelations, is that late twentiethcentury practices of cultural historywriting have their roots in the peculiar Romantic historicism born in postWaterloo Britain.'Jon Klancher, Times Literary Supplement'A monumental work of scholarship.'Terry Eagleton, The Independent
