Romantic Imperialism: Universal Empire and the Culture of Modernity - Cambridge Studies in Romanticism
Makdisi, Saree (University of Chicago)
This book traces the emergence of new forms of imperialism and capitalism as part of a culture of modernisation in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century. It looks at the ways in which they were identified with and contested in Romanticism, through original readings of texts by Wordsworth, Blake, Byron, Shelley, and Scott.
