Naturalizing Colonial Relations in the British Atlantic World: Slavery as Fact and Figure -- 2. Race and Animality in the British Atlantic World -- 3. Gender, Environment, and Imperialism in William Blake's Visions of the Daughters of Albion -- 4. Enslaved Brutes and Brutalized Slaves: Animal Rights and Abolition in Coleridge and the Black Atlantic -- 5. Environmental Determinism and the Politics of Nature: William Richardson's The Indians: A Tragedy -- 6. Thomas Campbell's American Idyll: Colonial Ideology in Gertrude of Wyoming -- 7. Romanticism, Colonialism, and the "Natural Man" in the Writings of Sir Francis Bond Head and George Copway -- Afterword: Colonialism and Ecology.By addressing these and other intriguing questions, Kevin Hutchings highlights significant intersections between Green Romanticism and colonial politics, demonstrating how contemporary understandings of animality, climate, and habitat informed literary and cross-cultural debates about race, slavery, colonialism, and nature in the British Atlantic world. Revealing an innovative dialogue between British, African, and Native American writers of the Romantic period, this book will be of interest to anyone wishing to consider the interconnected histories of transatlantic colonial relations and environmental thought.English literatureMinority authorsHistory and criticismEnglish literature18th centuryHistory and criticismEnglish literature19th centuryHistory and criticismEnvironmentalismGreat BritainHistoryHuman ecology in literatureImperialism in literatureNature in literatureRace in literatureRomanticismSlavery in literatureGreat BritainColoniesAmericaAdministrationEnglish literatureMinority authorsHistory and criticism.English literatureHistory and criticism.English literatureHistory and criticism.EnvironmentalismHistory.Human ecology in literature.Imperialism in literature.Nature in literature.Race in literature.Romanticism.Slavery in literature.820.9/007Hutchings Kevin(Kevin Douglas),1960-292989MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910791405603321Romantic ecologies and colonial cultures in the British Atlantic world, 1770-18503683784UNINA
