Matthew Sangster examines the intertwined social and financial practices that authors navigated between 1790 and 1830, revealing that financial independence and social networks were crucial for success, often overshadowing the act of writing itself. The book analyzes various case studies, highlighting the struggles of marginalized writers and the influence of literary networks, while also addressing the impact of reviews and social affiliations on authorship. Ultimately, Sangster presents a nuanced view of the Romantic period's literary landscape, emphasizing the diverse experiences of authors beyond the traditional narratives. pubtype: Review doctype: Book Review src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Romanticism is the property of Edinburgh University Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
