Presents the breadth of Geoffrey Hartman's critical influence on a generation of scholars similarly engaged with the two major concerns of his long and fruitful writing career: Romanticism and, in particular, Wordsworth and Holocaust studies with regard to memory and trauma. The essays are uniformly high in caliber and their critical wit and sensibility honor Hartman in thoroughly appropriate ways.
