The growing debate over British national identity, and the place of
"Englishness" within it, raises crucial questions about
multiculturalism, postimperial culture and identity, and the past
and future histories of globalization. However, discussions of
Englishness have too often been limited by insular conceptions of
national literature, culture, and history, which serve to erase or
marginalize the colonial and postcolonial locations in which
British national identity has been articulated. This volume breaks
new ground by drawing together a range of disciplinary approaches
in order to resituate the relationship between British national
identity and Englishness within a global framework. Ranging from
the literature and history of empire to analyses of contemporary
culture, postcolonial writing, political rhetoric, and postimperial
memory after 9/11, this collection demonstrates that far from being
parochial or self-involved, the question of Englishness offers an
important avenue for thinking about the politics of national
identity in our postcolonial and globalized world.
