Go into The In Memoriam Web. Double-click inside the "Political and Social Context" writing space to expose the other writing spaces inside it. Then double-click inside the "British Empire" writing space to expose the writing spaces within it. Read the text space associated with "British Empire." Does the speaker of "Locksley Hall" exhibit any of the attitudes towards the Orient described in this text space, even though the poem was written in the early years of active British expansionism around the world?
