초록
Im, Bora. “Literary Landscape in Eighteenth-Century Britain: Patriotic Spirit and Poetic Satirization in Contemporary Literature.” Studies in English Language & Literature 46.4 (2020): 75-90. The social, political atmosphere of Britain in the eighteenth century was extremely intense as the country was intimidated by the revolutionary France. Therefore, the British government encouraged anti-revolutionary and patriotic spirits in its cultural organs such as journalism and literature. In this article, I would like to study how British literary atmosphere of the eighteenth century was influenced by anti-revolutionary and patriotic spirits and how it in turn contributed to the reproduction of them. In doing this, I would like to narrow down the period of my study to by around March 1793, when the French Revolutionary Wars broke out. I will focus on Richard Brinsley Sheridan's less explored but still important text, The Camp(1778), to discuss the significant influence of patriotic spirits on British literature of the eighteenth century. The English literature during the Revolution and the French Revolutionary Wars could not be radical or intense as both literary organs, legitimate and illegitimate, had to be conscious of the eye of the censorious government.
