Literary notes about Anglophobia (AI summary)

Literary usage of the term "anglophobia" has often served to capture moments of palpable cultural and political tension. For example, in his historical account, Henry Scadding evokes an "uncomfortable Anglophobia" in the 1752 setting of Fort Rouillé and along the north shore of Lake Ontario, highlighting the unease and animosity directed toward English influences during that period [1]. This instance reflects how authors utilize the term not merely to describe a specific prejudice, but also to underscore broader societal conflicts and the complex interplay of cultural identities in historical narratives.
  1. An uncomfortable Anglophobia was reigning at Fort Rouillé, as generally along the whole of the north shore of Lake Ontario in 1752.
    — from Toronto of Old by Henry Scadding
