|
The Romantic period witnessed the beginnings of the sustained
British imperial expansion that was to dominate its history,
bringing with it a sometimes anxious awareness of other cultures
and societies. This was also a period when criticism of the slave
trade was at its most intense, finally leading the formal abolition
of the trade within the British colonies in 1807 and the
emancipation of slaves in the British colonies in 1833. Most
writers associated with the first generation of British Romanticism
- William Blake, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, William Wordsworth,
Robert Southey, John Thelwell, and many other non-canonical writers
- wrote against the slave trade and their writing inevitably
engaged in representing the African other.
