Neuware - In the past decades, Romantic Studies has significantly widened its scope by massively expanding the literary canon as well as investigating a broader range of topics. Today the discipline of Romantic studies is more diverse than it has ever been. The focus on the socio-historical conditions of the Romantic period has led to a renewed interest in the conditions surrounding the production and reception of literature and the changing mediascape between 1780 and 1830. The period's media revolution also created the mass readership of the 19th century, particularly with regard to the novel, and it profoundly influenced the development and transformation of literary genres. The emergence of the modern scientific system with its disciplines and sub-disciplines created new forms of knowledge, which were disseminated through periodical publications, reviews, and journals, which, in turn, had a decisive influence on literature. The essays collected in this volume investigate a wide range of issues related to Romantic media and Romantic forms of mediation. They shed new light on key topics in Romantic studies such as authorship and genre, and cover important fields like the history of science, new media concepts of the Romantic period, and the materiality of literature.
