The Age of Eclecticism


Book Description

"The burden of the past" invoked by any discussion of eclecticism is a familiar aspect of modernity, particularly in the history of literature. This book aims to place this dynamic in a broader context by examining the rise of a manifold eclecticism in the nineteenth century. It focuses on two understandings of eclecticism in the period--one understood as an unreflective embrace of either conflicting beliefs or divergent historical styles, the other a mode of critical engagement that ultimately could lead to a rethinking of the contrast between creation and criticism and of the very idea of the original.
