What is Romanticism and Slave Narratives: Transatlantic Testimonies (Cambridge Studies in Romanticism, Series Number 38) about?

Helen Thomas' study opens a new avenue for Romanticism by exploring connections with literature produced by slaves, slave owners, abolitionists and radical dissenters between 1770 and 1830. In the first major attempt to relate canonical Romantic texts to writings of the African diaspora, she investigates English literary Romanticism in the context of a transatlantic culture, and African culture in the context of eighteenth-century Britain. In so doing, she reveals an inter-textual dialogue between two diverse yet equally rich cultural spheres, and their corresponding systems of thought, epistemology and expression.
