Abstract:Drawing attention to the underexamined category of loyalty, this essay argues for the centrality of loyalty to the formation of modernity in Victorian Britain and its empire. In so doing, it teases out the relation between loyalty and affect. Affect plays a key role in rendering loyalty visible. However, as the essay argues, loyalty also operates as flattened affect in ways that are crucial to tracking not only loyalty’s vexed relation with narrativity but also its differentiating effects on a geotemporal scale.
