Collects together the best articles by key historians, literary
critics, and anthropologists on the cultures of colonialism in the
British Empire in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.. A
substantial introduction by the distinguished historian, Professor
Catherine Hall, discusses new approaches to the history of empire
and establishes a narrative frame through which to read the essays
which follow.. The volume is clearly divided into three sections:
theoretical, emphasising concepts and approaches; the colonisers
'at home', focusing on how empire was lived in Britain; and 'away'
- the attempt to construct new cultures through which the
colonisers defined themselves and others in varied colonial sites.
A useful guide to recent scholarship on the culture of imperialism.
