by Michael E. Robinson (Author)
This book explores and theorizes Romantic bookishness, arguing that "bookish" names a queer practice and discourse at the margins of Romantic authorship and reading. Ornamental communities focused on books played an antithetical role to the twinned, spiritualizing ideologies of sexuality and authorship in Romanticism and its Victorian reception.
