'This is a book of rich pickings, which precludes easy synthesis...Romantic Millenarianism is that rare thing: a collective volume that engages and stimulates at a consistently satisfying intellectual level whilst persuading the reader throughout of the vital importance of its topic.' - Philip Shaw, British Association for Romantic Studies 'Nicholas Roe's essay in this collection is a witty account of the souring of Robert Southey's early millenarian 'Pantisocracy'...Other essays in this excellent collection focus on William blake, Thomas Moore, Byron, the influence of Milton, and most originally in an essay by Adam Rounce, the last depressed years of William Cowper...Although this collection of essays emanates from a 1996 conference in Denmark, it has the cohesion of a well-managed publication.' - Simon Kovesi, European Journal of English Studies
