ISBN: 9780810134058 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Can Scotland be considered an English colony? Is its experience and literature comparable to that of overseas postcolonial countries? Or are such comparisons no more than patriotic victimology to mask Scottish complicity in the British Empire and justify nationalism? These questions have been heatedly debated in recent years, especially in the run-up to the 2014 referendum on independence, and remain topical amid continuing campaigns for more autonomy and calls for a post-Brexit "indyref2." Gaelic Scotland in the Colonial Imagination offers a general introduction to the emerging field...

ISBN: 9781908980250 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The European age of empires is launched a process of capitalist globalisation that continues to the present day. It is also inextricably linked with the spread of revolutionary discourses (in terms of race, nation or social class): the quest for emancipation, political independence, and economic equality. R. B.

Hybrid Cultures Nervous States: Britain and Germany in a (Post)Colonial World
ISBN: 9789042032286 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 346 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

Greater interdisciplinary cooperation can counter this tendency and encourage sustained comparisons between different former empires and across language boundaries. This volume contributes to such...
