Description
Anthony Bateman's scholarly work explores the profound connection between literary representations of cricket and Anglo-British national identity spanning from 1850 to the mid-1980s. Drawing from newspaper accounts, instructional books, fiction, poetry, and the contributions of editors, anthologists, and historians, this book traces how literary discourse shaped cricket's cultural significance and meaning. Bateman's analysis uncovers little-known texts whilst reinterpreting established works, offering fresh perspectives on how cricket became woven into the fabric of national identity. This contribution to sports literature examines the ways literary traditions produced and sustained cricket's status as a cultural symbol, making it an essential read for scholars interested in the intersection of sports, literature, and empire.
