The rhetoric of Romantic prophecy

The Romantic era in England and Germany saw a sudden renewal of prophetic modes of writing, arising from a new-found freedom of biblical interpretation. This text surveys developments in 18th-century biblical hermeneutics, culminating in close readings of works by Blake, Holderlin and Coleridge.
