Book Synopsis
Although the British romantic poets have been the subjects of previous ecocritical examinations, this title compares English and German literary models of romanticism. Rigby treats not only canonical British romantics but an array of major figures in Continental literature, philosophy, and natural history.

Trade Review
Kate Rigby is working in an increasingly important area of ecocritical and romantic studies, and she brings to her task an impressive combination of erudition and scholarship, as well as a graceful prose style, Topographies of the Sacred is particularly valuable because of the comparative element it brings to this work. Rigby's analysis of literary 'nature' will occasion discussion, debate, and ongoing research. - Ashton Nichols, Dickinson College, author of The Poetics of Epiphany and The Revolutionary ""I
