Colonial Voices

Meer over het boek

The book explores the intersection of imperial romance and political ideology, focusing on late-imperial narratives set in the Anglo-African colonies. It addresses the lack of critical analysis of popular romances from this era and highlights the growing interest in African perspectives. By re-evaluating "voice" in relation to "landscape," it examines how economic globalization transformed indigenous lands into capitalistic resources, displacing tribes and altering their cultural expressions. This scholarly study offers a profound insight into the complexities of colonial literature and its impact on identity and landscape.
