This book is a collection of wonderful and thoughtful essays that explore the theme of beautiful sanctuaries in nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century European literature. The book focuses especially on selected works by Percy Shelley, E. T. A. Hoffmann, Henrik Ibsen, and James Hilton. These sanctuaries of light, natural beauty, and tranquility comfort, nurture, and soothe the heart, mind, and soul of the individual, and inspire creative expression.
Hugo G. Walter has a BA from Princeton University, an MA from Old Dominion University, a PhD in literature from Yale University, and a PhD in interdisciplinary studies from Drew University. Walter is Professor of English and Humanities at Berkeley College, New Jersey, and Online. He has written widely on European literature, including The Apostrophic Moment in Nineteenth and Twentieth Century German Lyric Poetry (Lang, 1988), Space and Time on the Magic Mountain: Studies in Nineteenth- and Early-Twentieth-Century European Literature (Lang, 1999), and Sanctuaries of Light in Nineteenth Century European Literature (Lang, 2010). In addition, Walter has published ten volumes of poetry.
