Imperial Media

Meer over het boek

Exploring the intersection of media and colonialism, this book examines how information technologies influenced British perspectives on their empire from 1857 to 1918. It highlights the role of electric media in disseminating information about colonial territories, shaping public perception and thought. By analyzing the symbiotic relationship between these technologies and the British literary imagination, the work reveals how media not only conveyed information but also constructed conceptual frameworks for understanding imperialism, much like today's digital platforms.
