  • "Discusses how Romantic-age writers and new cultural institutions transformed ideas of knowledge inherited from the early-modern period."@en
  • "In this important and innovative study Jon Klancher shows how the Romantic age produced a new discourse of the "Arts and Sciences" by reconfiguring the Enlightenment's idea of knowledge and by creating new kinds of cultural institutions with unprecedented public impact. ... Taking a historical and cross-disciplinary approach, he opens up Romantic literary and critical writing to transformations in the history of science, history of the book, art history, and the little-known history of arts-and-sciences administration that linked early modern projects to nineteenth- and twentieth-cnetury modes of organizing "knowledges." His conclusions transformthe ways we think about knowledge, both in the Romantic period and in our own. -- Cover."
