Synopsis
This book analyzes the Romantic literary and cultural movement in the Rhine region of Germany. Beginning in the 18th century, the author traces the progressive emergence of nationalistic sentiment in Germany, and shows how the Rhine took on special symbolic and historical significance as the 'stream of German life'. Richly placed within the context of the prevailing European political and intellectual climate, this book places the work of figures such as Bettina von Arnim, Clemens Brentano, and August Wilhelm Schlegel within the framework of their social, national, and literary concerns. Exploring the way in which the region's folklore and mythology was integrated into Romantic literary expression, it underscores the importance of the Rhine as a powerful cultural icon in German history and letters.
