| Description | The Romantic Movement that began to sweep through Europe at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries has had a profound influence on our perception of the individual, the value of childhood and the upbringing of children, on our concept of history and the nation and, last but not least, on how we view, experience and protect nature The lecture provides a tour around the landscapes of the British Romantic writers, from the Scottish Highlands epitomized by Robert Burns, Walter Scott’s castles, lakes and the notorious Sherwood Forest and William Wordsworth’s Lake District, to Jane Austen country and the Brontë sisters Yorkshire moors. It examines ways in which a place is transformed via fiction and how readers reshape the very place in response |
