Description

Archives of Intimacy examines the complex social and personal histories of racial mixing in a colonial port city during the early twentieth century. This scholarly work from Stanford University Press explores how intimate relationships, family structures, and daily life intersected with colonial power dynamics between 1905 and 1949. Drawing on archival research, the book reveals untold stories of individuals and communities navigating identity, belonging, and belonging in a rapidly changing urban environment shaped by imperialism and global commerce. Part of the Stanford British Histories series, this volume contributes essential perspectives to cultural and ethnic studies by centering the voices and experiences often marginalised in conventional historical narratives. Readers interested in colonial history, social history, race relations, and the cultural complexities of port cities will find this work a valuable and nuanced exploration of how intimacy functioned as both a personal and political space.
