“Romanticism in Germany” - the last and fundamental work of the scientist. < /p>

Berkovsky turned to the topic of German romanticism throughout his life, exploring the aesthetics of the literary direction, his connection with the French revolution, the work of individual authors. This work summarizes this many years of experience, recreating the integral picture of the emergence, heyday and decline of German romanticism. The history of literary and philosophical searches of the era is represented in their inextricable connection with the dramatic, and sometimes tragic, the fate of artists - Jena, Heidelberg, and late romantics. Combining the wealth of topics, associations and comparisons with the severity of the historical and literary approach, the book of N. Ya. Berkovsky is one of the most monumental and vivid studies of German romanticism in Russian science.
