"Alchemical imagery and ideology is present in many Romantic works of literature, but it has largely been overlooked by literary historians in their
contextualization of the time period. The same can be said for mysticism in general, of which alchemy is a subset. This project accounts for alchemy in the works of
transcendental philosophers and writers as it contributes to some of the most important conversations of the Romantic time period, particularly the reaction against empirical philosophy and the articulation of creative processes."
