520    Viewed as one of the most tumultuous, momentous movements 
       in the history of world literature, Romanticism and its 
       origins have long been studied by literary critics. In 
       this book, Nicholas Riasanovksy, primarily known as an 
       eminent historian of Russia, offers a refreshing and 
       appealing new interpretation of Romanticism's origins, 
       goals, and influence. The original surge of Romantic 
       thought occurred in England and Germany in the middle to 
       late 1790s, and within a decade had spent itself. 
       Riasanovsky focuses on the explosion of the Romantic 
       impulse, and searches for the origins of the revolutionary
       vision that made the early Romantic poets in England and 
       Germany take an entirely different view of the world. 
       Pairing two British authors (Wordsworth and Coleridge) 
       with three German authors (Novalis, Friedrich Schlegel, 
       and Wackenroder), Riasanovsky demonstrates that, for all 
       the cultural differences between them, they represent 
       variations on the same "emergence." Essentially, all five 
       were obsessed with the problem of their eternal striving 
       and inability to reach their own goals. All five abandoned
       the Romantic ideology within a decade and, having 
       supported the goals of the French Revolution in the 1790s,
       retreated into political conservatism or religious 
       orthodoxy. Riasanovsky identifies the heart of Romanticism
       as being the creature of a pantheistic religious culture. 
       He stresses that Romanticism was produced only by Western 
       Christian civilization, with its unique view of 
       humankind's relationship to God. The Romantics' frantic 
       and heroic striving for unreachable goals mirrors 
       Christian beliefs in human inability to adequately address
       God, speak to God, or praise God. Further, Riasanovsky 
       argues that Romantic thought had important political 
       implications, playing a key role in the rise of 
       nationalism in Europe. Offering a historical examination 
       of an area often limited to literary analysis, this book 
       gracefully makes a larger historical statement about the 
       nature and centrality of European Romanticism. Not limited
       to the cultural historian and the literary critic, The 
       Emergence of Romanticism also makes available to the 
       general reader a jargon-free look at the heady days of 
       Romanticism.
