Orienting Virtue
Civic Identity and Orientalism in Britain's Global Eighteenth Century
Examines how England’s sense of collective virtue was inflected and informed by Eastern empires. Bethany Williamson shows how England’s struggle to define and practice national virtue hinged on the difficulty of articulating an absolute concept of moral value amid dynamic global trade networks.
