This text argues that the aggressive nationalism of James Thomson's ode ""Rule Britannia!"" (1740), is the condition to which much English poetry of the late 17th and 18th centuries aspires. Poets as varied as Marvell, Waller, Dryden and Defoe, all wrote poems deeply engaged with the British nation.
