ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
This volume began life at a conference held at St Mary’s University, Strawberry Hill, in November 2014, jointly organised by the Department of English literature at St Mary’s and The Nordic Association for Romantic Studies. We owe a deep debt of gratitude to Peter Howell, my friend and then colleague at St Mary’s, without whose initiative that conference would never have taken place. We would like to take this opportunity also to thank the Danish Embassy in London, and the Anglo-Swedish Literary Foundation, both of which gave generous financial support to the conference. To Ben Doyle, Eva Hodgkin, Milly Davies, and all the team at Palgrave, our thanks for their professionalism, enthusiasm, and support throughout all stages of the project. And to our anonymous reader at Palgrave, thanks are due for some really cogent feedback which helped considerably to bring the book to its final shape. For kind permission to quote from manuscript material and to reproduce illustrations, we would like to thank: the Hirschprung Collection, Copenhagen; the Linnean Society, London; the National Gallery of Denmark; and the National Library of Scotland.
