Description

Richard Polwhele was a writer of exceptional range whose contributions to British Romantic literature have been largely overlooked. Though commonly remembered only for The Unsex'd Females, Polwhele's career spanned history, translation, memoir, and poetry across sermons, open letters, and verse inscriptions. This scholarly monograph recovers his complete legacy by situating him within an archipelagic framework that reveals the vitality and complexity of the loyalist tradition in British Romantic culture. Using previously unexamined texts and manuscript sources, the study reveals how Polwhele navigated the tensions between his position as an indigent Cornish gentleman clergyman and his prolific literary output. Published by Routledge within their New Textual Studies in Literature series, this volume offers literary scholars and students a comprehensive reassessment of Polwhele's significance to Romantic-era politics and aesthetics, demonstrating how regional identity and religious conviction shaped his distinctive poetic voice and historical imagination.
