Written on the Water: British Romanticism and the Maritime Empire of Culture
Samuel Baker
Tracks an uncanny interrelationship between ocean imagery and culturalist rhetoric of culture forward from the late Augustans to the mid-Victorians. This book analyzes William Wordsworth's pronounced ambivalence toward the sea, Samuel Taylor Coleridge's sojourn as an imperial functionary in Malta, and Lord Byron's cosmopolitan seafaring tales.
