Description

The Expansion of England examines how imperial ideology shaped British historical practice from the Empire's height through its decline. This Routledge volume combines postcolonial theory with historical analysis to explore the British Empire across multiple regions including Asia, Australasia, the West Indies, South Africa and Britain itself. The book features a collection of essays that interrogate both the history of British expansion and the assumptions embedded in how historians have studied it. By drawing on postcolonial frameworks, the work challenges conventional narratives of imperial destiny and reveals how professional historians' early interpretations were profoundly influenced by the Empire's dominance. Essential reading for scholars of British history, postcolonial studies and the historiography of empire, this text offers critical insights into how historical understanding has been shaped by political contexts and cultural biases.

Key Features

The Expansion of England explores British imperial history through postcolonial theoretical frameworks that challenge conventional historical narratives.

Essays cover multiple imperial territories including Asia, Australasia, the West Indies, South Africa and Britain to provide comprehensive geographic scope.

The volume examines how beliefs in imperial destiny influenced the first generation of professional historians and their methodological approaches.

Routledge's publication combines historical chapters with theoretical analysis to interrogate both empire itself and the practice of historical enquiry.

The book addresses how sexua and cultural dimensions of empire shaped British expansionism and historical understanding across regions.
