Romantic Ecocriticism: Origins and Legacies is unique due to its rare assemblage of topics, which have not appeared within an edited collection before. Romantic Ecocriticism is distinct because the essays in the collection develop transnational and transhistorical approaches to the ecological or environmental aspects in British and American Romanticism. First, the edition s transnational approach is evident through transatlantic connections such as, but are not limited to, comparisons among the following writers: William Wordsworth and Henry D. Thoreau, Charles Darwin and Ralph W. Emerson, Mary Wollstonecraft and Gilbert Imlay, Mary Wollstonecraft and Thomas Jefferson, Dorothy Wordsworth and Susan F. Cooper, William Howitt and Henry D. Thoreau. Second, the transhistorical approach of Romantic Ecocriticism is evident in connections among the following writers: William Wordsworth and Emily Bronte, Thomas Malthus and George Gordon-Lord Byron, James Hutton and Percy Shelley, Erasmus Darwin and William Blake, Gilbert White and Dorothy Wordsworth among others. Thus, Romantic Ecocriticism offers a dynamic collection of essays dedicated to links between scientists and writers interested in natural history.
