"This is the first book to examine how Romantic writers transformed poetic collections
to reach new audiences. In a series of case studies, Michael Gamer shows Romantic
poets to be fundamentally social authors: working closely with booksellers, intimately
involved in literary production, and resolutely concerned with current readers even
as they presented themselves as disinterested artists writing for posterity. Exploding
the myth of Romantic poets as naive, unworldly, or unconcerned with the practical
aspects of literary production, this study shows them instead to be engaged with intellectual
property, profit and loss, and the power of reprinting to reshape literary reputation.
Gamer offers a fresh perspective on how we think about poetic revision, placing it
between aesthetic and economic registers and foregrounding the centrality of poetic
collections rather than individual poems to the construction of literary careers"
