description: This book argues that the eighteenth-century British theater is a dynamic expression and a powerful register of the anxieties and tensions of a culture poised for global supremacy. It also argues that nationalism, as both active movement and contemplative ideology, cannot be separated from the themes of expansionism that propel the many incentives, principles, and sites of performance.
