Описание: Angelia Poon examines how British colonial authority in the nineteenth century was predicated on its being rendered in ways that were recognizably 'English'. Reading a range of texts by authors that include Charlotte BrontA«, Mary Seacole, Charles Dickens, Rudyard Kipling, and H. Rider Haggard, Enacting Englishness in the Victorian Period focuses on the strategies - narrative, illustrative, and rhetorical - used to perform English subjectivity during the time of the British Empire. Characterising these performances, which ranged from the playful, ironic, and fantastical to the morally serious and determinedly didactic, was an emphasis on the corporeal body as not only gendered, racialised, and classed, but as (in)visible, desiring, bound in particular ways to space, and marked by certain physical stylizations and ways of thinking. As she shines a light on the English subject in the act of being and becoming, Poon casts new light on the changing historical circumstances and discontinuities in the performances of Englishness to disclose both the normative power of colonial authority as well as the possibilities for resistance.
Описание: Trollope the reformer and the reformation of Trollope scholarship in relation to gender, race, and genre are the intertwined subjects of eminent Trollopian Deborah Denenholz Morse`s radical rethinking of Anthony Trollope work, particularly the later novels. Morse traces the evolution of Trollope`s views on the pastoral genre, modernity.

Описание: Through an examination of Tennyson`s `domestic poetry` - his portrayals of England and the English - in their changing nineteenth-century context, this book demonstrates that many of his representations were `fabrications`, more idealized than real, which played a vital part in the country`s developing identity and sense of its place in the world.

Описание: James`s writing, it has been claimed, actively works against an understanding of the way history and power circulate in his texts. Enacting History in Henry James argues instead that in James`s writing knowledge is attained only by actively participating in the power games and moral dramas that unfold within the text.
