Abstract:Taking up two Romantic-era colonial texts about Jamaica—Benjamin Moseley's Treatise on Sugar and the anonymous novel Marly—this essay considers the forest in relation to racial ecologies of the Caribbean. Beginning with the entwined history of deforestation and the sugar plantation in the fifteenth century, it reads the forest as a non-place aiding forms of resistance and escape from slavery, sheltering different modes of earthly inhabitation, and gesturing toward alternative conceptions of form and matter. The essay concludes with the forest as a conceptual and material site from which to constellate subsistence movements and ecological resistance across time and space.
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.
