  Book Description
  Publication Date: June

  Reconstructing the literary and philosophical reaction to Adam Smith's dictum that man is a
labouring animal above and before all else, this study explores the many ways in which Romantic writers presented idle
contemplation as the central activity in human life. By contrasting the British response to Smith's political economy
with that of contemporary German Idealists, Richard Adelman also uses this consideration of the importance of idleness
to Romantic aesthetics to chart the development of a distinctly British idealism in the last decades of the eighteenth
century. Exploring the work of Adam Smith, Jeremy Bentham, Friedrich Schiller, William Cowper, Samuel Taylor Coleridge,
Mary Wollstonecraft and many of their contemporaries, this study pinpoints a debate over human activity and capability
taking place between 1750 and 1830, and considers its social and political consequences for the cultural theory of the
early nineteenth century.
  
  Reviews
  "..explores the importance of the concept of "idle contemplation" as civilizing activity in late-eighteenth-century
and Romantic philosophy and aesthetics."-- Studies in English Literature
 

  "An attentive reader of Idleness, Contemplation and the Aesthetic will find her mind pleased and intrigued by
the connections the author makes. But Adelman's book is no passive read-sparks will fly in the reader's mind as
well."--Eighteenth-Century Fiction
  
  Book
Description II
