This, the second part of a two volume collection of new essays from
international scholars, is concerned with examining the British
experience of travel, tourism, and imperialism. It considers the
British travelling beyond their isles over the last three hundred
years, and through a range of interdisciplinary perspectives
reflects on their taste for discovery and self-discovery both
through the exploration - and exploitation - of other lands and
peoples, and also through their encounters with other societies and
civilisations. Experiencing Imperialism focuses on colonised lands
and peoples, from the British Empire and those of other western
powers, from territories ruled by the West to those that gained
independence. Together the essays offer fresh and often challenging
perspectives on the colonial and postcolonial ages, increasingly
characterised as they were by the dominance of new means of
transport and communication; of a world defined, as they saw it, by
those travellers, explorers and colonialists.
