Bynum examines B�cquer's conception of spirit and poetry, and relates the creative force of imagination to B�cquer's total literary output. He argues that it is this imaginative force, supported by the framework of an international Romanticism, that grants the poet's work to unite, transform, and mediate. Combining interpretive criticism and textual analysis, Bynum substantiates the central importance of imagination in B�cquer's oeuvre, and the significance of the concepts of mediation and threshold. By considering B�cquer within a critical context broader than is usual, Bynum establishes additional points of reference in the theoretical foundation on which B�cquer's works rest, offering new insights into the work of this master of the poetic art.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Unc Department of Romance Studies","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47615014699159,"sku":"9780807892503","price":3119.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780807892503.webp?v=1775097820","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-romantic-imagination-in-the-works-of-gustavo-adolfo-becquer-9780807892503","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
