Inhalt
In the rapidly expanding 18th-century world, English perceptions of origin and heritage became altered - the question of national identity emerging as a particularly troubled and ambiguous issue. Wilson bases her analysis on a wide range of case studies drawn both from Britain and from across the Atlantic and Pacific worlds. Creating a colorful and original colonial landscape, she considers topics such as sodomy, theater, masculinity, the symbolism of Britannia, and the role of women in war. Colonial power and expansion had far-reaching implications upon the English people's sense of self. The vaunted singularity of English culture was in fact constituted by the bodies, practices and exchanges of peoples across the globe.
