Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: '[The text] significantly expands upon the [existing] body of scholarship to argue persuasively that Crabb Robinson was the most important pioneering comparatist during the Romantic period. [...] Hunnekuhl‟s tightly-woven monograph opens the door for further inquiry into other areas of Robinson‟s early reading, writing and social interactions. [...] Future scholarship in these and other areas in the early life of one of the most important diarists and commentators on British life and thought in the nineteenth century will now be able to build upon the solid foundation laid by Philipp Hunnekuhl.'
