The first event in our new season of BARS Digital Events 2021-22. As the field of Romanticism in the past few decades has broadened to allow more comedy into understandings of it, we believe it\u2019s time for an increasing sophistication in our attention to comedy, including to its particular manifestations and embodiments, including in the zany. Building on the work of other scholars who\u2019ve illuminated our sense of Romantic satire, theater, and other comic writing, this roundtable will focus on Zany Romanticism drawing greater attention to the ways that Romantic writers understand aesthetic production as a tense commingling of \u201cartful play\u201d and \u201caffective labor.\u201d More broadly, a commitment to examining Zany Romanticism helps bring into greater view more of the period\u2019s various \u201cbeset agents\u201d and their forms of often ignored or unrecognized labor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our speakers will be Brian Rejack (Illinois State), Rebecca Schneider (Fort Lewis College), Kate Singer (Mount Holyoke), and Michael Theune (Illinois Wesleyan University).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
