After decades of neglect, Southey's centrality to Romantic period culture is at last being recognized. Bolton's study draws upon a wide range of interdisciplinary materials to consider the impact of his work upon nineteenth-century views of empire. She situates Southey's histories, biographies, journalism and epic poetry within their historical and geographical contexts to argue that his widely transmitted views on leadership, duty and global responsibility constituted a moral imperialism that formed Victorian values. 410 0$aEnlightenment world. 606 $aRomanticism$zEngland$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aGreat Britain$xColonies$xIn literature 615 0$aRomanticism$xHistory 676 $a821.7 700 $aBolton$b Carol$01490142 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778271303321 996 $aWriting the empire$93711315 997 $aUNINA
