Description

Imperialism as Diaspora reassesses the important years of the British Raj in India and the diasporic position of Anglo-Indians, who, while neither quite British nor Indian, were simultaneously both, and who were instrumental in the construction of the Empire in India. Introduction: Race, gender and diaspora : explorations of Anglo-India -- Masculinity forged under siege : the Indian mutiny of 1857 -- The terrains of identity : mimicry and the Great Game -- The missionary's position : love and passion in Anglo-India -- The laws of desire : intimacy and agency in Anglo-India -- Epilogue: imperialism as diaspora.
