Description

Explore the complex connections between empire and art in Slavery, Colonialism and Connoisseurship: Gender and Eighteenth-Century Literary Transnationalism. Published by Routledge, this scholarly work by Nandini Bhattacharya investigates how writers in the later eighteenth century navigated the heavy realities of colonization and the slave trade. By examining the writings of figures such as Richard Brinsley Sheridan, George Colman Jr., James Cobb, and Phillis Wheatley, the book reveals how aesthetic metaphors were used to redefine concepts of Value and Taste. This analysis shows how literary discourse helped manage the ethical debates surrounding the ownership and exchange of human beings during this era. This text is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in literary theory, history, and the cultural impact of the circumatlantic world. It provides a deep look into how literature functioned as a way to handle the guilt and social implications of trade and human trafficking through the lens of connoisseurship.
