One of the defining features of Romantic writing, critics have long agreed, is its characterization of the self in terms of psychological depth. Many Romantic writers, however, did not conceive of the self in this way, and in Romantic Identities Andrea K. Henderson investigates that part of Romantic writing that challenges the 'depth' model, or operates outside its domain. Henderson explores forms of Romantic discourse, explains their economic and social contexts, and examines their differing conceptions of identity. Individual chapters treat the Romantic view of the self in embryo and at birth, the relation of gothic characterization to the ghostliness of exchange value, anti-essentialism in Romantic psychology, the conception of self as genre in writings by Percy and Mary Shelley, and the link between economic circulation and the distrust of psychological interiority in Scott.

Review:
"Romantic Identities is a quietly distinguished book, and all the more welcome for its unassuming intelligence." The Wordsworth Circle

"Andrea Henderson's Romantic Identities is an ambitious and stimulating book that contains enlightening and enlivening readings of a wide range of literary and other writings from the Romantic period." Nineteenth-Century Literature
Book Description:
A defining feature of Romantic writing, critics have long agreed, is its characterization of the self in terms of psychological depth. Many writers, however, did not conceive of the self in this way. Romantic Identities broadens our perceptions of Romanticism by exploring Romantic writing that challenges the 'depth' model.
