James Silk Buckingham (1786–1855) and the Politics of Travel in the Holy Land
Abstract:This essay examines the cultural and political framing of Palestine in the work of the liberal English writer, journalist, and politician, James Silk Buckingham. In his Travels in Palestine (1821), Buckingham posits Palestine as an imaginative space where a liberal Briton develops critiques of Biblical literalism and religious pietism, encouraged by an emerging landscape in nineteenth-century Britain that accommodated vigorous radical and dissenting voices. At the turn of the nineteenth century, as this essay shows, debates in Britain about political radicalism and religious orthodoxy shaped the perception of Palestine and its population in the popular genre of travel writing.
期刊介绍:
Studies in Romanticism was founded in 1961 by David Bonnell Green at a time when it was still possible to wonder whether "romanticism" was a term worth theorizing (as Morse Peckham deliberated in the first essay of the first number). It seemed that it was, and, ever since, SiR (as it is known to abbreviation) has flourished under a fine succession of editors: Edwin Silverman, W. H. Stevenson, Charles Stone III, Michael Cooke, Morton Palet, and (continuously since 1978) David Wagenknecht. There are other fine journals in which scholars of romanticism feel it necessary to appear - and over the years there are a few important scholars of the period who have not been represented there by important work.
