"In a book certain to be of interest to readers in many disciplines, the distinguished scholar Theodore Ziolkowski shows how a strong impulse toward historical concerns was formalized in the four German academic faculties: philosophy, theology, law, and medicine/biology. In Clio the Romantic Muse, he focuses on representative figures in whose early work the sense of history of was first manifested: G.W.F. Hegel, Barthold Georg Niebuhr, Friedrich Karl von Savigny, Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph von Schelling, and Friedrich Schleiermacher. Through biographical treatments of these and other leading German scholars, Ziolkowski traces how the disciplines became historicized in the period 1790-1810. He goes on to suggest how powerfully the Romantic thinkers influenced their disciples in the twentieth century."--Jacket.

The first two sections -- "Narrative" and "Poetry" -- includes complete texts by Ukasaw Gronniosaw, an African prince; Mary Prince, the first woman to produce a slave narrative; Robert Wedderburn, a radical London activist with Jamaican roots; and generous selections from Olaudah Equiano, Ignatius Sancho, Ottobah Cugoano, Phillis Wheatley, the "African Preacher" John Jea, and others. A lively introduction, detailed headnotes for each featured author, a chronology, and a fourth section, "Recent Criticism," provide a wealth of context for this fascinating and long-neglected subject. -- From publisher's description.
