Abstract
:
The eighteenth-century novel and Romantic poetry are traditionally described as "domestic" or "inward-turning." The dissertation challenges the exclusivity of these assumptions. In response to the changing global balance of power, British writers between 1717 and 1820 developed new narrative shapes to comment upon British Imperial concerns in both the Middle East and India.
