Hart's discussion on slavery has even larger scope ranging from early Arab, African and Portuguese practices in Africa and beyond to the legal abolition of slavery in the British empire, the United States and elsewhere in the Nineteenth-century. 606 $aEuropean literature$yRenaissance, 1450-1600 606 $aWorld history 606 $aLinguistics 606 $aEuropean literature 606 $aEurope$xHistory 606 $aHistory, Modern 606 $aEarly Modern and Renaissance Literature 606 $aWorld History, Global and Transnational History 606 $aLinguistics 606 $aEuropean Literature 606 $aEuropean History 606 $aModern History 615 0$aEuropean literature 615 0$aWorld history. 615 0$aLinguistics. 615 0$aEuropean literature. 615 0$aEurope$xHistory. 615 0$aHistory, Modern. 615 14$aEarly Modern and Renaissance Literature. 615 24$aWorld History, Global and Transnational History. 615 24$aLinguistics. 615 24$aEuropean Literature. 615 24$aEuropean History. 615 24$aModern History. 676 $a325.7 700 $aHart$b Jonathan Locke$f1956-$0899056 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961593703321 996 $aContesting Empires$94333655 997 $aUNINA
