It appears that the lives of the British Romantics and the myths surrounding them have a special appeal for contemporary writers.The present volume sets out to explore this renewed interest in Romantic artist-figures in the context of the current renaissance of 'life-writing'. The essays collected here deal with Romantic 'biofictions' by such authors as Peter Ackroyd, Adrian Mitchell, Ann Jellicoe, Liz Lochhead, Judith Chernaik, Amanda Prantera, Robert Nye, Tom Stoppard, Howard Brenton, Edward Bond, and others. Thomas Chatterton, William Blake, James Hogg, Sir Walter Scott, Percy Bysshe Shelley, Mary Shelley, John Polidori, John Clare, and -- most prominently -- Lord Byron feature as the 'biographical subjects' in the works discussed.

Der Band vereinigt alle Dokumente, in denen Niklaus von Flüe genannt wird, und alle Berichte der Zeitgenossen über ihn. Bruder Klaus war bereits während seines Lebens ein umstrittener Heiliger: sei es wegen seines jahrelangen Fastens, sei es wegen des Weggangs aus seiner großen Familie. Heute fasziniert vor allem sein visionäres Talent und seine Eigenständigkeit. Werner T. Huber kommentiert die einzelnen Zeugnisse und macht sie vom zeitgen÷ssischen Hintergrund her verständlich. Er erschliesst dabei die Aktualität von Bruder Klaus. (publisher's description).
