Description

Explore how racial categories based on skin colour emerged in mid-Victorian England, tracing the intellectual foundations that replaced Biblical monogenesis with polygenetic theories. This scholarly work examines the pivotal period between the early nineteenth century decline of monogenetic faith and the mid-twentieth century maturity of modern genetics, when racial categorisation became systematically imposed upon humanity. The book analyses the social, scientific and philosophical conditions that made ideas of 'race' gain widespread acceptance in England during the nineteenth century, providing essential context for understanding how modern racial frameworks developed within the human sciences. Part of the Routledge Studies in Modern British History series, this volume offers rigorous academic analysis of cultural and ethnic studies through a historical lens.
