This book delves into three significant endeavors during the 17th century in Nova Scotia (1620s), East New Jersey (1680s), and the Isthmus of Panama, then known as Darien (1690s). By examining these endeavors within the broader context of the Scottish Atlantic, the author explores the profound impact of the Atlantic on Scottish literature during this period and vice versa. The author's analysis centers on the relationship between art and ideology, highlighting how early modern writing, particularly utopianism, was employed as a tool for empire-building and as a means of asserting power over the Atlantic.
