Intermediales Text-Theater: Die Bühne des Politischen und des Wissens vom Menschen bei Wordsworth und Scott

This book discovers the latent working of the theatre in British Romantic literature. It shows how two central writers, Wordsworth and Scott, were fascinated by theatre conceptions that could not be implemented on the British stage, and how they both practised this theatre in their own texts. Among the first studies to discussthe relationship of theatre and textin some depth, this book develops a new integrative model of intermediality.
