George Henty and the Fiction of Empire

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This work focuses on George Henty's novels as a prototype of the literature that emerged with the rise of British imperialism. It also assesses the role of 19th-century literature, both in the perpetuation of stereotypes vis-a-vis Africa, and in the socialization of young adults.
