With England's Happiness Proclaim Europa's Liberty. Writers' reactions to Napoleon from Keats to McG

The Romantics – those belonging to both the hopeful and hopeless camps as well as those in between – found rich pickings from Napoleon’s defeat, which also inspired later writers. This talk will offer a series of close readings of texts which have the power to raise eyebrows even when at their most lowbrow. Giuseppe Albano is Curator of the Keats-Shelley House, Rome. Part of the Jane Austen Festival.
