But as Tamarkin shows, this Anglophilia was more than just an elite nostalgia; it was popular devotion that made reverence for British tradition instrumental to the psychological innovations of democracy. Anglophilia spoke to fantasies of cultural belonging, polite sociability, and, finally, deference itself as an affective practice within egalitarian politics. Tamarkin traces the wide-ranging effects of anglophilia on American literature, art and intellectual life in the early nineteenth century, as well as its influence in arguments against slavery, in the politics of Union, and in the dialectics of liberty and loyalty before the civil war. By working beyond narratives of British influence, Tamarkin highlights a more intricate culture of American response, one that included Whig elites, college students, radical democrats, urban immigrants, and African Americans. Ultimately, Anglophila argues that that the love of Britain was not simply a fetish or form of shame-a release from the burdens of American culture-but an anachronistic structure of attachement in which U.S. Identity was lived in other languages of national expression. 606 $aPublic opinion$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aPopular culture$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aDemocracy$xSocial aspects$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aPolitical culture$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aUnited States$xCivilization$y1783-1865 607 $aUnited States$xCivilization$xBritish influences 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yRevolution, 1775-1783$xInfluence 607 $aUnited States$xRelations$zGreat Britain 607 $aGreat Britain$xRelations$zUnited States 607 $aGreat Britain$xForeign public opinion, American 610 $aanglophilia, american revolution, britain, england, class, academia, intellectualism, elite, nostalgia, reverence, affect theory, tradition, democracy, republic, belonging, politeness, etiquette, social standards, deference, egalitarian, politics, slavery, union, liberty, loyalty, civil war, attachment, national identity, african americans, immigrants, urban, students, whigs, filial piety, hawthorne, patriotism, rebellion, imperialism, education, harvard, dilettantes, sincerity, nonfiction, history. 615 0$aPublic opinion$xHistory 615 0$aPopular culture$xHistory 615 0$aDemocracy$xSocial aspects$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical culture$xHistory 676 $a973.3 700 $aTamarkin$b Elisa$01545453 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782537003321 996 $aAnglophilia$93800395 997 $aUNINA
