More about the book

Exploring the intersection of literature and medicine in the early nineteenth century, this study delves into how visionary experiences and hallucinations were perceived by both canonical Romantic authors and women writers influenced by them. It highlights the impact of medical ideas on literary expressions and examines the role of visual culture during this period, revealing the complex dialogue between artistic creativity and emerging scientific understandings of the mind and body.
