Paula M. Krebs - Gender, Race, and the Writing of Empire: Public Discourse and the Boer War
Published: 2004-08-26 | ISBN: 0521607728, 0521653223 | PDF | 220 pages | 0.9 MB


This book looks at the ways Victorian ideas about gender and race supported British imperialism at the turn of the century. It examines the Boer War of 1899-1902 through the war writings of literary figures such as Arthur Conan Doyle, Olive Schreiner, H. Rider Haggard and Rudyard Kipling, and also through newspapers, propaganda, and other forms of public debate in print. Paula M. Krebs' analysis of the part played by ideas about gender and race in public discourse makes a significant new contribution to the study of British imperialism.
