Abstract | This chapter considers how expanded England might have impacted on the aristocratic identity which shows to have been key to Shaftesbury's politics. It discusses the relationship between Shaftesbury's colonial and domestic political engagements. Shaftesbury's engagement with England's colonising movement was fourfold: as investor, proprietor, legislator, and via the Fundamental Constitutions of Carolina, intellectual pioneer. Shaftesbury was motivated to take on these responsibilities by the same combination of aristocratic ambition and duty which led him to take such a prominent role in the public administration of empire. Shaftesbury as proprietor had already dispensed with another governor, Yeamans in Carolina. Shaftesbury's engagement with Carolina was clearly different, and its relationship with his domestic political career perhaps more complex. Shaftesbury's council never became the all-seeing eye of the imperial state, its gaze being disproportionately drawn to the Caribbean at the expense of England's mainland American colonies. |
