The exercise of institutional and personal power could create conditions in which those least empowered, particularly women, perceived themselves to be captive subjects. This "domestic captivity" is intimately connected to England's substantial involvement in the systematic enslavement of kidnapped Africans, even as early fictional narratives ignore the experience of enslaved people. The book looks at canonical authors such as Aphra Behn, Richard Steele, and Eliza Haywood, as well as popular writers such as Penelope Aubin and Edward Kimber"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Prologue: reading captivity -- Cultures of captivity -- Captivating farce: Aphra Ben's The emperor of the moon -- Domesticating captivity: Richard Steele's The conscious lovers -- Barbary captivity: Penelope Aubin in The noble slaves -- "Indentured slaves": British captivity in Colonial America -- Afterword: domesticating captivity. 648 7 $a 1500-1799 $2 fast 650 0 $a English fiction $y Early modern, 1500-1700 $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a English fiction $y 18th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Captivity in literature. 650 0 $a Master and servant in literature. 650 0 $a Women in literature. 650 0 $a Authority in literature. 650 0 $a Criticism. 650 7 $a Authority in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00821686 650 7 $a Captivity in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01902675 650 7 $a English fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00910817 650 7 $a English fiction $x Early modern. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01710953 650 7 $a Master and servant in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01011558 650 7 $a Women in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01177912 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 $i Online version: $a Ingrassia, Catherine, 1962- $t Domestic captivity and the British subject, 1660-1750 $d Charlottesville : University of Virginia Press, 2022 $z 9780813948102 $w (DLC) 2022008344 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117020458.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=17DC2F0A253111EE91433F782CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
