Open AccessZalfa Feghali, Ben Offiler et al.ARTICLEJournal of American Studies2021
The American studies community was left reeling after learning of Amy Kaplan’s passing a year ago in the summer of 2020.The essays in this roundtable testify not only to Kaplan’s enormous contributions to American studies scholarship, but also to her inspirational mentorship and friendship to scholars and students across the world. We are grateful to each of our contributors, Rafael Walker, Alex Lubin, Mark Storey, and Poulomi Saha, for sharing t…
Time and Antiquity in American Empire
Mark StoreyBOOKTime and Antiquity in American…2021
This is a book about two empires—ancient Rome and the United States—and what happens to historical time when we think about them together. Ranging from the present day to the late eighteenth century, it tracks how the political and cultural imagination turned Roman antiquity into an object of mutual recognition—an analogy—for the imperial US state, sometimes for the sake of its justification and perpetuation, and sometimes as a tool of critique a…
‘Bob Southey! – Poet Laureate’
Mark StoreyCHAPTERRobert Southey and the Contexts…2016
Towards the end of 1815, Robert Southey wrote to his old friend Charles Wynn, apologizing for not calling on him on the way back from the Continent, where, with his wife, daughter Edith May, and a few friends, he had been visiting the battlefield at Waterloo. Southey himself was very conscious of the oddity of the work published in 1816 as The Poet's Pilgrimage to Waterloo; of the introductory stanzas he wrote, 'The Proem touching upon my return …
Commerce and Carnival at the Canvas City
Mark StoreyCHAPTERRural fictions, urban realities2013
Offering an exploration of how one of the most popular and spectacular forms of postbellum entertainment was represented in the period's fiction, this chapter considers the way the circus became both a recognisably modern form of commercial business as well as a site of exotic and sensual escape. The arrival of a travelling circus in town is a frequent episode in postbellum rural fiction, and this chapter considers the complex and often contradic…
Rural fictions, urban realities
Mark StoreyBOOKRural fictions, urban realities2013
This study of late 19th-century American literature uses the period's rural fiction to reveal the increasingly intricate and sometimes problematic connections between urban and rural life.

Huck and Hank go to the circus
Mark StoreyARTICLEEuropean Journal of American…2011References: 2
This essay argues that Mark Twain's acquaintance with P. T. Barnum, and more especially Twain's fascination with the world of popular entertainment that Barnum epitomized, provided inspiration and material for some of Twain's most enduring works. In particular, the essay argues that two of Twain's most revered novels The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884) and A Connecticut Yankee at King Arthur's Court (1889) are invested both thematically and…

The ‘Fever at the Core’
Mark StoreyCHAPTERByron and the Eye of Appetite1986
There may be some truth in the contention that Byron, in poems such as The Giaour and The Corsair, was producing a kind of poetry that his audience wanted.1 But much more than mere opportunism lies behind this long string of narrative poems, stretching from The Giaour through later efforts such as The Prisoner of Chillon and Parisina to Mazeppa and The Island (this last interrupted the composition of Don Juan). Clearly, Byron was fascinated by th…

‘Due Bounds’ and ‘Due Precision’
Mark StoreyCHAPTERByron and the Eye of Appetite1986
One of Byron’s most sustained flights occurs in canto VI of Don Juan, where he pursues the ramifications of his hero’s plight, disguised as a woman in a harem: on the one hand there is the innocent Dudù, with her less-than-innocent dreams as she shares a bed with Juan; on the other is the lustful Gulbeyaz, with her own thoughts about this new arrival. Byron plays off the one relationship against the other, and the canto as a whole depends for its…

‘The Eloquence of Indifference’
Mark StoreyCHAPTERPoetry and Humour from Cowper to…1979
Byron is often seen as a figure apart from the other Romantic poets: it was an image he carefully cultivated. But that careful cultivation was necessary because he knew how little apart, in many ways, he was, either from the Keatsian or the Wordsworthian tradition. The irrational animosity between Keats and Byron is explicable only when we acknowledge what they have in common: each in his own way is obsessed with the problems of writing about the…
