Description
Summary:
David Bowie and Romanticism evaluates Bowies music, film, drama, and personae alongside eighteenth- and nineteenth-century poets, novelists, and artists. These chapters expand our understanding of both the literature studied as well as Bowies music, exploring the boundaries of reason and imagination, and of identity, gender, and genre. This collection uses the conceptual apparata and historical insights provided by the study of Romanticism to provide insight into identity formation, drawing from Romantic theories of self to understand Bowies oeuvre and periods of his career. The chapters discuss key themes in Bowies work and analyze what Bowie has to teach us about Romantic art and literature as well.
