CARIBBEAN CULTURE AND BRITISH FICTION
IN THE ATLANTIC WORLD, 1780-1870
Tim Watson challenges the idea that Caribbean colonies in the nine¬
teenth century were outposts of empire easily relegated to the realm of
tropical romance while the real story took place in Britain. Analysing
pamphlets, newspapers, estate papers, trial transcripts, and missionary
correspondence, this book recovers stories of ordinary West Indians,
enslaved and free, as they made places for themselves in the empire
and the Atlantic world, from the time of sugar tycoon Simon Taylor
to the perspective of Samuel
Ringgold Ward,
African-American eye¬
witness to the
1865
Morant Bay rebellion. With readings of Maria
Edgeworth and George Eliot, the book argues that the Caribbean
occupied a prominent place in the development of English realism.
However, Watson shows too that we must sometimes turn to imperial
romance
—
which made protagonists of rebels and religious leaders,
as in
Hamel,
the Obeah Man
(1827) —
to understand the realities of
Caribbean cultural life.
тім
Watson is Assistant Professor of English at the University
of Miami.
