This book comprises essays offered by friends, colleagues, and
former students in tribute to Andrew Porter, on the occasion of his
retirement from the Rhodes Chair in Imperial History at the
University of London. The contributors, including many
distinguished historians, explore through a variety of case studies
'ambiguities of empire' and of imperial and quasi-imperial
relationships, reflecting important themes in Professor Porter's
own writing. Whilst the range of articles reflects the breadth of
Andrew Porter's scholarly collaborations and interests, the
chapters focus in particular on two aspects of imperial history
which have been the subject of his particular attention: religion
and empire and the end of empire. The book contains original pieces
on the history of British imperialism currently the subject of
considerable scholarly attention. The book will be invaluable to
students and scholars of empire, religion and colonialism. This
book was published as a special issue of the Journal of Imperial
and Commonwealth History.
