Established in the belief that imperialism as a cultural phenomenon
had as significant an effect on the dominant as it did on the
subordinate societies, the "Studies in Imperialism" series seeks to
develop the new socio-cultural approach which has emerged through
cross-disciplinary work on popular culture, media studies, art
history, the study of education and religion, sports history and
children's literature. The cultural emphasis embraces studies of
migration and race, while the older political, and constitutional,
economic and military concerns are never far away. It incorporates
comparative work on European and American empire-building, with the
chronological focus primarily, though not exclusively, on the 19th
and 20th centuries, when these cultural exchanges were most
powerfully at work. This work explores the sexual attitudes and
activities of those who ran the British Empire. The study explains
the pervasive importance of sexuality in the Victorian Empire, both
for individuals and as a general dynamic in the working of the
system. Among the topics included in the book are prostitution, the
manners and mores of missionaries and aspects of race in sexual
behaviour. -- .
