Jay Clayton, Vanderbilt University
 


Notes

1 For institutional reasons, chiefly involving the presence of three extraordinary Romanticists—Jerome Christensen, Paul Elledge, and Mark Schoenfield—in a relatively small English department, these courses do not center on Romanticism per se, but they invariably contain discussions of Romantic texts and themes.
