Summary
Confronting the contemporary poststructuralist debate from the perspective of cultural historiography,The Expansion of Englandpresents an historical study of race and ethnicity. Specifically, it provides an account, both theoretical and applied, of the combination of sexual, racial and ethnic identities, underpinning and shaping the experiences of English men and women in the nineteenth century. Although very accessible, this book will be received seriously by both theorists and historians. Contributors: William Schwarz, Couze Venn, Bob Chase, Catherine Hall, Gwyneth Roberts, Kenneth Parker and Andrew Blake.
