Description:
The Romantic Art of Confession is about works specifically entitled 'confessions' written during the Romantic period in Britain and France, including Thomas De Quincey's Confessions of an English Opium-Eater, George Sands' La Confession d'une jeune fille, and James Hogg's The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner. Professor Levin argues that such works share a number of characteristics: they appropriate a religious form, they have narrators (confessors) who are outcasts and with whom the authors identify, and they focus on specific problems - opium addiction, alcoholism, illegitimacy - which suggest broader issues.
