Originally published in 1983. In the late nineteenth century as the
European powers divided the world between themselves and scrambled
over Africa, so their writers went with them, recording in fiction,
as well as in historical narrative, the events and issues of the
colonial expansion. The literature which they left behind them is
the subject of this book. Taking Robinson Crusoe as the starting
point for colonial literature, the book looks at linking themes and
ideas in the colonial literatures of England, Frances and Germany.
In drawing the attention of English-speaking readers to the writing
of these other countries, English fiction is placed in a wider
context. The comparison also emphasises a homogeneity in the
various traditions of colonial literature which goes beyond mere
flag waving.
