Description
Summary:The purpose of this paper is to analyze the topic of the liberal nation-state in Lord Byron’s Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage.This work is significant as it includes the beginnings of the liberal ideology. The paper will show that, during the times of British Romanticism, liberalism and nationalism coincided. The context of these times will be analysed in parallel with the Populist ideology nowadays to which it bears certain resemblances. Last, but not least, the issue of whether there is ideology or not in an apparent wish to do away with ideology in the call of the Romantic poets will be researched.
