Produktbeschreibung

The post-colonial afterlives of imperial heroes are examined for the first time in this book, from a variety of vantage points in both the former metropoles and the former colonies. Benefiting from a Franco-British analytical framework, Decolonising Imperial Heroes reveals that the reputations of some heroic figures of 'New Imperialism' have remained alive and often rejuvenated after decolonisation. Indeed, this 'decolonisation' of heroes has been a much more complex and protracted process than the political retreat from empire. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Imperial and Commonwealth History.
