Description
Examines a range of Robert Southey's writing to explore the relationship between Romantic literature and colonial politics during the expansion of Britain's second empire. This study draws upon a range of interdisciplinary materials to consider the impact of his work upon nineteenth-century views of empire.
Reviews'will become essential reading for both academics and students in the field' BARS Bulletin & Review 'an important book. Bolton's readings are careful, thoroughly documented and illuminated by some detailed consideration of Southey's correspondence and literary journalism. It will inspire and intensify further scholarly debate while the Southeyan recuperation goes on apace.' Byron Journal
