"Marking Time: Romanticism and Evolution, provides a perceptive contribution to the scholarship linking Romanticism to the study of natural philosophy and natural history, especially evolution. The volume features leading researchers, many of whom have written significant monographs in the past." (Dewey W. Hall, European Romantic Review, Vol. 30 (1), 2019)
