War, Literary Culture and Masculinity in Romantic Period Britain, 1750-1850

浪漫主义时期代表着澳大利亚历史上的一个形成时刻，我对浪漫主义文化和战争的重新思考对理解这段历史具有重要意义。澳大利亚自己的战争经历最早起源于1788年至1838年的边境战争。我对英国浪漫主义军事和海军战争写作的研究将提供对主导澳大利亚军事史形成时刻的军事文化的关键见解。更广泛地说，战争在澳大利亚国家地位和身份认同的形成中起到了关键作用。我的项目将有助于我们理解战争在澳大利亚文化中的作用，为战争写作在构建现代身份认同中的历史作用提供新的见解。

The Romantic period represents a formative moment in the history of Australia and my reconsideration of Romantic culture and war has relevance for understanding this history. Australia's own experience of war first originated with the frontier wars of 1788-1838. My research into British Romantic military and naval war writing will provide key insights into the military culture that dominated this formative moment of Australian military history. War has, more broadly, been pivotal in the formation of Australian nationhood and identity. My project will contribute to our understanding of the role of war in Australian culture by providing fresh insight into the historical role of war writing in constructing modern forms of identity.
