This book shows how German writers and thinkers helped to shape these five institutions, all of which assumed their modern form during the Romantic period.

Trade Review
One of Choice's Outstanding Academic Titles for 1991 "Ziolkowski is among those who go beyond lip-service to the historical and are able to show concretely the ways in which generic and thematic intentions are inexricably enmeshed with local and specific institutional circumstances."--Modern Language Notes
