De-Illustrating the History of the British Empire: Preliminary Perspectives: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "De-Illustrating the History of the British Empire: Preliminary Perspectives" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

De-Illustrating the History of the British Empire aims to offer a timely and inclusive contribution to the evolving cross-disciplinary scholarship that connects visual studies with British imperial historiography. The key purpose of this book is to introduce scholars and students of British imperial and Commonwealth history to a clearly presented and diversely themed evaluation of several visual manuscripts - images of all genres depicting particular events, personalities, social and cultural contexts - that document the development of some of the British imperial and post-colonial visual literacies history. The concept of visual manuscripts alongside theories of visual anthropology and memory studies are addressed across the entire volume thus allowing the readers to approach with greater ease the discourse on imperial iconography and historiography.
