AB This dissertation analyses several poetic compositions by the Romantic author Felicia Hemansthat deal with Spain. Its main focuses the way in which the author uses Spanish landscapes andspaces to establish a link with Britain at a time of conflict and political instability in Europeangeopolitics. Her poems present a Romanticized and Orientalized image of Spain, which isdescribed as an exotic and distant place, but at the same time the author exploits pathos andsentiment, associating these spaces with positive values and feelings to create a favorable imageof them for her readers. Thus, Hemans makes Spain, a distant and exotic place for the Britishimaginary of the time, appear familiar and close at the same time.
