This book appraises the critical contribution of the Studies in
Imperialism series to the writing of imperial histories as the
series passes its 100th publication. The volume brings together
some of the most distinguished scholars writing today to explore
the major intellectual trends in Imperial history, with a
particular focus on the cultural readings of empire that have
flourished over the last generation. When the Studies in
Imperialism series was founded, the discipline of Imperial history
was at what was probably its lowest ebb. A quarter of a century on,
there has been a tremendous broadening of the scope of what the
study of empire encompasses. Essays in the volume consider ways in
which the series and the wider historiography have sought to
reconnect British and imperial histories; to lay bare the cultural
expressions and registers of colonial power; and to explore the
variety of experiences the home population derived from the empire.
