Description: This volume provides an analytic survey of the literature produced as a consequence of the long history of Britain's rule in India. It stretches from the establishment of British hegemony in the 1750s to the achievement of Indian independence in the postcolonial era almost two centuries later. In providing close readings of individual texts and authors, the contributors not only utilise the ideological critique of colonial representation initiated by Said's Orientalism (1978), but also more recent modes of analysis. Particular attention is paid to questions of gender, sexuality and psychic affect in imperial relations In good condition. Cover has signs of use, but no marks or tears. Pages are not torn nor marked.
