"This is the first book in English to encompass all phases of Novalis's work in a comprehensive discussion. With a focus on Novalis's theory of semiotics, O'Brien presents a decisive aspect of Romanticism in a novel context and an entirely new reading of the major texts that shows them to be inspired by highly astute socio-political and historiographic considerations."--Geza von Molnar, Northwestern University
