Religion in the Age of Romanticism

This book presents studies of early-nineteenth-century religious thought in Germany, France and Italy in so far as it reflected the influence of the Romantic movement. Romanticism may be notoriously difficult to define, but the cast of mind usually associated with it -- manifest in philosophy, theology and social theory as well as in literature, music and the visual arts -- is never hard to detect, even though the forms of its expression may vary widely.
