The Wordsworth Circle A Journal of Romantic Studies The Wordsworth Circle is an international quarterly learned journal founded in 1970 to publish contemporary studies of the literature, culture, and society of Great Britain, Europe, and North America during the Romantic period from about 1760-1850. Directed towards scholars, critics, and students, the journal focuses on the lives, works, and times of such writers as Wordsworth, Coleridge, Blake, Hazlitt, De Quincey, Lamb, Southey, Byron, Shelley, Keats, Sir Walter Scott, Jane Austen, James Beattie, Maria Edgeworth, Mary Robinson, Felicia Hemans, Joanna Baillie, Leigh Hunt, John Clare, Thomas Carlyle, Robert Burns, Walter Savage Landor, and James Hogg. TWC publishes essays on poetry, novels, drama, essays, publications, and publishers. The journal also includes material on non-literary figures (historians, scientists, artists, architects, philosophers, theologians, and social commentators) and topics (science, politics, religion, aesthetics, education, legal reform, and music)—anything that appeared during, impinges upon, or is of interest to Romanticists. Essay-reviews of major books published in the field of Romanticism appear in the fourth issue of every volume. Reflecting contemporary interests, TWC is ranging, diverse, and eclectic.
