Phillis Wheatley: Poems on Various Subjects.

Phillis Wheatley is considered the first African-American writer, her magnum opus, called Poems on Various Subjects, has a great collection of poems of different kinds, mostly political and religious.

In her litearary work, she praised figures such as George Washington, who at that time was a military general, some clergymen, and King George III was nicknamed: "the farmer king" for being a man of simple manners, unlike his predecessors.

Phillis Wheatley wrote a commemorative poem called "To the King's Most Excellent Majesty" in 1768, in which exalts his rise to king in 1760 and predicts prosperity during his reign, which would last 41 years despite his mental problems.

The poem written for George III is purely allegorical, so it is not based on the reality of the kingdom such as his war with Napoleon or the independence of the American states.

Phillis Wheatley wrote an idealization of the good that the king can do for his people, like, in this case, giving them freedom just with a smile.
