ISBN: 9780719091834 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Slavery and the slavery business have cast a long shadow over British history.

Race, Nation and Empire CB: Making Histories, 1750 to the Present
ISBN: 9780719082665 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The essays in this collection show how histories written in the past, in different political times, dealt with, considered, or avoided and disavowed Britain's imperial role and issues of difference.
Ranging from enlightenment historians to the present, these essays consider both individual historians, including such key figures as E. A. Freeman, G. M. Trevelyan and Keith Hancock, and also broader themes such as the relationship between liberalism, race and historiography and how we might re-think British history in the light of trans-national, trans-imperial and cross-cultural analysis....

Civilising Subjects : Metropole and Colony in the English Imagination 1830 - 1867
ISBN: 9780745618210 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 576 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Winner of the Morris D. Forkasch prize for the best book in British history 2002
Civilising Subjects argues that the empire was at the heart of nineteenth-century Englishness. English men and women in the mid-nineteenth century imagined themselves at the centre of a great empire: their mental and emotional maps encompassed 'Aborigines' in Australia, 'negroes' in Jamaica, 'coolies' in the Indies. This sense of the other provided boundaries and markers of difference: ways of knowing who was 'civilised' and who was 'savage'. This fascinating book tells... Winner of the Morris D.

Civilising Subjects
ISBN: 9780226313351 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. How did the English get to be English? In "Civilising Subjects," Catherine Hall argues that the idea of empire was at the heart of mid-nineteenth-century British self-imagining, with peoples such as the "Aborigines" in Australia and the "negroes" in Jamaica serving as markers of difference separating "civilised" English from "savage" others.
Hall uses the stories of two groups of Englishmen and -women to explore British self-constructions both in the colonies and at home. In Jamaica, a group of Baptist missionaries hoped to make African-Jamaicans into people like themselves, only to be... How did the English get to be English?
