We are delighted to announce the publication of the most recent issue of The BARS Review (No 52, Autumn 2018). The issue contains a total (including a double review) of nineteen reviews of recent scholarly work within the field of Romanticism, broadly conceived. Five of the nineteen reviews compromise a ‘spotlight’ section on ‘Romanticism, the Landscape, and the Environment’.
This issue of The BARS Review is dedicated to the memory of Professor Michael O’Neill (1953-2018) and includes his review of John Barnard’s 21st-Century Oxford Authors: John Keats.
If you have comments on the new number, or on the Review in general, we’d be very grateful for any feedback that would allow us to improve the site or the content. Mark Sandy would also be very happy to hear from people who would like to review for BARS.
