Written by William Lyon Phelps and originally published in 1893, the book explores the cultural and intellectual context that gave rise to Romanticism, examining the works of major writers such as William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and William Blake.

He traces the development of Romantic themes and motifs in literature, including the celebration of imagination, emotion, and individualism, as well as the rediscovery of folklore, mythology, and the supernatural. The book also explores the influence of Romanticism on other artistic forms, such as painting and music, and its lasting impact on Western culture.
