Although its author does not mention Adam Smith, his discussion of these ideas in Theory of Moral Sentiments offers insights into both the novel's plot and characters and its engagement with the ideals and practices of commerce, empire, and slavery. The protagonist, Olivia Fairfield, experiences numerous disappointments and betrayals during her stay in England, yet when she is about to return to her Jamaican home, she describes England as a \"favoured isle\" because it has produced some ideal men. In order for England and Jamaica to become \"favoured isles,\" it is essential that white residents of both locales abjure the selfishness that pervades imperialist and capitalist accumulation and treat everyone, including enslaved people, with sympathy. Doing so allows the novel's several heroes to see themselves and be seen by others as benevolent, yet allows them to continue to reap the benefits of empire.","PeriodicalId":43800,"journal":{"name":"Eighteenth-Century Fiction","volume":"35 1","pages":"113 - 132"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43394548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Olivia's rejection of marriage acts as a Romantic-era version of Black women's \"culture of dissemblance\": a deliberate cultivation of privacy and disavowal of reproductive sexuality that is designed to evade the threat of sexual violation in a hostile society. Rather than abolitionist allies, sentimental men are shown to be self-serving and hypocritical: deploying benevolence, moral duty, and emotion to abuse and coerce. Sentimental paternalism entails white women's conjugal misery, as the transatlantic marriage market secures British colonial networks at the expense of women's happiness. Olivia's white father facilitates his daughter's exploitation at the hands of emotionally incontinent, self-absorbed, and sexually threatening white men of feeling whose behaviour discredits the authority of imperial masculinity and forces readers to evaluate the moral and political inadequacies of white abolitionism.","PeriodicalId":43800,"journal":{"name":"Eighteenth-Century Fiction","volume":"35 1","pages":"102 - 81"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42770836","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, I extend Lyndon J. Dominique's reading of Olivia's subversive gaze and laughter found in Imoinda's Shade (2012). In building on Dominique's insights, I show how Olivia paradoxically uses caricatural tropes of fat versus thin and young versus old to envision caricature on her own terms: to challenge and resist anti-Black stereotypes. When the novel is examined within the context of contemporary visual caricatures that depict the Black female body as grotesque, one recognizes that Olivia's defensive use of verbal caricature is a rhetorically strategic attempt to challenge England's racial hierarchy, by reaffirming her own femininity and \"fairness.\"","PeriodicalId":43800,"journal":{"name":"Eighteenth-Century Fiction","volume":"35 1","pages":"43 - 64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49559973","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dominique's Broadview edition. It has since become central to studies in the long eighteenth century because of its subversion of the marriage plot and the intertwining of this plot with Black liberation struggles through the voice of the mixed-race Jamaican protagonist Olivia Fairfield. In this introduction to an ECF special issue dedicated to the novel, the authors trace developments in Black British history, Black womanist historiography, and global Romanticism in order to situate The Woman of Colour within a radical Black Atlantic tradition. They argue that the novel foregrounds the resistance of Black and enslaved people, and that the refractive force of the plot breaks away from the teleology of colonial conquest and opens up multiple interpretive possibilities.","PeriodicalId":43800,"journal":{"name":"Eighteenth-Century Fiction","volume":"35 1","pages":"1 - 26"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45134808","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The novel depicts him as a paragon of virtue and sentiment, with characters like Olivia praising his high moral worth. This article argues that Augustus exemplifies the ideals of eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century aesthetic traditions, including their views on race. Augustus's aversion to the colour of Olivia's skin is not out of character nor is it depicted as a foible to be rectified. The expression of disgust toward mercantile behaviour and Blackness is at the core of the culture of taste that Augustus represents.","PeriodicalId":43800,"journal":{"name":"Eighteenth-Century Fiction","volume":"35 1","pages":"103 - 111"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47667391","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At its climax, the letters of its biracial protagonist Olivia Fairfield come to an end and are replaced by a correspondence between the book's editor and his friend. This essay argues that readers' loss of access to Olivia's innermost thoughts and feelings is the formal manifestation of the novel's inability to imagine a future for her in English society. Its choice of a literary form already out of fashion by its publication in 1808 speaks to a desire to return to a notional time before the extent of empire's moral costs, which included the sexual abuse of enslaved women like Olivia's mother Marcia, were fully known. In search of plausible deniability about slavery and the operations of capital, the novel finally exiles knowledge of those costs from its domestic sphere back across the Atlantic, when Olivia returns alone to Jamaica.","PeriodicalId":43800,"journal":{"name":"Eighteenth-Century Fiction","volume":"35 1","pages":"65 - 80"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49106693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
