ISBN: 9781138931961 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The majority of scholarly conceptions of the Mediterranean focus on the sea's northern shores, with its historical epicentres of Spain, France or Italy. This book seeks to demonstrate the importance of economic, political and cultural networks emanating from the Mediterranean's lesser-studied southern shores. The various chapters emphasize the activities that made connections between the southern shores, sub-Saharan Africa, the lands along its northern shores, and beyond to the United States. In doing so, the book avoids a Eurocentric approach and details the importance of the players and...

Historicizing Colonial Nostalgia : European Women's Narratives of Algeria and Kenya 1900-Present
ISBN: 9781137414786 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This illuminating study of European women's narratives in colonial Algeria and Kenya argues that nostalgia was not a post-colonial phenomenon but was embedded in the colonial period. Patricia M. E. Lorcin explores the distinction between imperial nostalgia, associated with the loss of power that results from the loss of empire, and colonial nostalgia, associated with loss of socio-cultural standing in other words, loss of a certain way of life. This distinction helps to make women's discursive role an important factor in the creation of colonial nostalgia, due to their significant...

French Mediterraneans: Transnational and Imperial Histories
ISBN: 9780803249936 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 444 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. While the Mediterranean is often considered a distinct, unified space, recent scholarship on the early modern history of the sea has suggested that this perspective is essentially a Western one, devised from the vantage point of imperial power that historically patrolled the region's seas and controlled its ports. By contrast, for the peoples of its southern shores, the Mediterranean was polymorphous, shifting with the economic and seafaring exigencies of the moment. Nonetheless, by the nineteenth century the idea of a monolithic Mediterranean had either been absorbed by or imposed on the...

Transnational Spaces and Identities in the Francophone World
ISBN: 9780803244528 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 488 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The dissolution of the French Empire and the ensuing rush of immigration have led to the formation of diasporas and immigrant cultures that have transformed French society and the immigrants themselves. Transnational Spaces and Identities in the Francophone World examines the impact of this postcolonial immigration on identity in France and in the Francophone world, which has encompassed parts of Africa, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and the Americas. Immigrants bear cultural traditions within themselves, transform "host" communities, and are, in turn, transformed. These migrations...
