This anthology, edited by Wolfgang Frühwald, a true expert on Romanticism, presents Romantic poetry in all its thematic and formal diversity. The poems are offered in their original print versions wherever possible, as many texts have been smoothed, softened, or even distorted by later editors and the poets' heirs. A comprehensive appendix with explanations, indexes of themes, guiding and imagery words, as well as a detailed introduction, provides insight into the texts. With this new edition, the long-successful anthology of Romantic poetry in the Universal Library is brought up to date.
