These essays turn on a shift in Romantic studies from viewing wholeness as an absolute value to critiquing it as a limiting construction. Wholeness, and its concomitant sense of harmony, is a construct that was assembled and disassembled, theorized and criticized, by diverse authors and artists and instrumentalized for diverse purposes.
