Abstract

Abstract:A response to the other essays in "An Inventive Age," developing their ecocritical revision of the antagonism between an "organic" Romanticism and industrialism. Framing its argument around the failure of the Scottish Highlands to industrialize like other regions of Britain, the essay explores some different inflections to key contemporary terms like "industry," "invention," and "improvement" in Thomas Garnett's 1800 Tour of the Highlands. Notwithstanding Garnett's cameralist hopes for a mixed ecology of growth in the region, his Tour disguises the structural dependence of the Highland economy on West Indian wealth, with implications for the other essays in the special issue.

“穿透黑暗/英国最遥远的峡谷”:来自高地的回应

摘要:对《一个发明的时代》中其他文章的回应，发展他们对“有机”浪漫主义与工业主义之间对抗的生态批评。围绕苏格兰高地未能像英国其他地区一样实现工业化，这篇文章探讨了托马斯·加内特(Thomas Garnett) 1800年的《苏格兰高地游记》(Tour of the Highlands)中一些关键当代术语的不同变化，如“工业”、“发明”和“改进”。尽管作为摄影师，加内特希望该地区能有一个混合的生态增长，但他的图尔掩盖了高地经济对西印度财富的结构性依赖，这对本期特刊的其他文章也有启示。

期刊介绍： Studies in Romanticism was founded in 1961 by David Bonnell Green at a time when it was still possible to wonder whether "romanticism" was a term worth theorizing (as Morse Peckham deliberated in the first essay of the first number). It seemed that it was, and, ever since, SiR (as it is known to abbreviation) has flourished under a fine succession of editors: Edwin Silverman, W. H. Stevenson, Charles Stone III, Michael Cooke, Morton Palet, and (continuously since 1978) David Wagenknecht. There are other fine journals in which scholars of romanticism feel it necessary to appear - and over the years there are a few important scholars of the period who have not been represented there by important work.
