92 reviewsRooted in a period of vigorous exploration and colonialism, The Island Race: Englishness, empire and gender in the eighteenth century
is an innovative study of the issues of nation, gender and identity.
Wilson bases her analysis on a wide range of case studies drawn both
from Britain and across the Atlantic and Pacific worlds.
Creating a colourful and original colonial landscape, she considers topics such as:
* sodomy
* theatre
* masculinity
* the symbolism of Britannia
* the role of women in war.
Wilson
shows the far-reaching implications that colonial power and expansion
had upon the English people's sense of self, and argues that the vaunted
singularity of English culture was in fact constituted by the bodies,
practices and exchanges of peoples across the globe. Theoretically
rigorous and highly readable, The Island Race will become a seminal text for understanding the pressing issues that it confronts.
