Description

Explore the complex connections between nation, gender, and identity in The Island Race: Englishness, empire and gender in the eighteenth century. Published by Routledge, this study examines the era of vigorous exploration and colonialism through a wide range of case studies. Wilson moves beyond a single perspective, drawing analysis from Britain and across the Atlantic and Pacific worlds to build a detailed colonial landscape. This work investigates how colonial power and expansion shaped the social fabric of the eighteenth century. By looking at diverse topics such as masculinity, the role of women in war, and the symbolism of Britannia, the book reveals the far-reaching implications of imperial growth. Readers gain a deep understanding of how identity was constructed during this transformative period of history. Whether you are studying British history or the social impacts of empire, this text provides an original look at how these forces influenced the world.
