"In Imagining the British Atlantic after the American Revolution, nine essays consider
these revolutionary transformations from a variety of literary, visual, and historical
perspectives. On topics ranging from painting and poetry to prison reform, the essays
challenge and complicate our understandings of revolution and reaction within the
transatlantic imagination. Drawing on examples from different local and regional contexts,
they demonstrate the many remarkably local ways that revolution and empire were experienced
in London, Pennsylvania, Pitcairn Island, and points in between."--Book jacket flap
