From heritage tourism and costume dramas to theories of the imperial idea(l): empire sells. Post-Empire Imaginaries? Anglophone Literature, History, and the Demise of Empires presents innovative scholarship on the lives and legacies of empires in diverse media such as literature, film, advertising, and the visual arts. Though rooted in real space and history, the post-empire and its twin, the post-imperial, emerge as ungraspable ideational constructs. The volume convincingly establishes empire as welcoming resistance and affirmation, introducing post-empire imaginaries as figurations that connect the archives and repertoires of colonial nostalgia, postcolonial critique, post-imperial dreaming."--Back cover. 650 0 $a Commonwealth literature (English) $y 20th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Postcolonialism in literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002010213 650 0 $a Imperialism in literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh94004979 650 7 $a Commonwealth literature (English) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00869850 650 7 $a Imperialism in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00968142 650 7 $a Postcolonialism in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01073035 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 700 1 $a Buchenau, Barbara, $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2002046684 700 1 $a Richter, Virginia, $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2001025314 700 1 $a Denger, Marijke, $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2015171063 776 08 $i Online version: $z 9789004302280 776 0 $w (GyWOH)har155017292 830 0 $a Cross/cultures ; $v 182. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n90714752 830 0 $a ASNEL papers ; $v 19. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n96109610 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214023720.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FBDC250A019E11E89C78220097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
