Traces a multifaceted discourse about Denmark in British eighteenth-century and Romantic-period culture

Offers original perspectives on British, Danish, and European Romanticism, and the relationship between them

Contributes to the scholarly discussion of Romantic nationalism and the emergence of the idea of ‘regional’ cultural identities in the early nineteenth century

Addresses a wide range of Nordic as well as Anglophone scholarship

Provides a select chronology of key historical events and points of cultural contact between Britain and Denmark in the long eighteenth century

British Romanticism and Denmark shows how the articulation in British Romantic-period writing of the idea of a ‘Northern’ cultural identity – shared by Britain and Denmark and rooted in the Classical Scandinavian past – played an important role in the emergence and development of Romanticism and Romantic nationalism in both countries. By addressing a wide range of Nordic as well as Anglophone scholarship, this study offers new perspectives on British, Danish and European Romanticisms, and on the relationship between them.
