Abstract
Abstract:Romantic poets mythologized Indigenous people but had little interest in their material reality and well-being. This dynamic continues today, and neoliberal diversity efforts in universities do little to benefit actual Indigenous communities. It is time to engage more deeply with Indigenous thought and living communities rather than focus on the vague rhetoric of decolonization, which only serves institutions and individuals and does little to build solidarity.
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.
