CRES 151: British Romanticism and India


Units: 4

During the Romantic period (roughly 1780-1830), British literature and the early British Empire underwent transformations in which the Orient, real and imagined, served as an experimental site for envisioning a global modernity. This course is premised on the assumption that literature served as a crucial medium through which Britons and their colonial subjects understood a developing western empire, and the early empire in turn profoundly informed the themes and forms of literary expression in Britain and India.
