| Zusammenfassung: | This book is an exploration of popular late nineteenth-century texts that show Australia - along with Africa, India and the Pacific Islands - to be a preferred site of imperial adventure. Focusing on the period from the advent of the new imperialism in the 1870s to the outbreak of World War I, Robert Dixon looks at a selection of British and Australian writers. Their books, he argues, offer insights into the construction of empire, masculinity, race, and Australian nationhood and identity. Writing the Colonial Adventure shows that the genre of adventure/romance was highly popular throughout this period. The book examines the variety of themes within their narrative form that captured many aspects of imperial ideology. In considering the broader ramifications of these works, Professor Dixon develops an original approach to popular fiction, both for its own sake and as a mode of cultural history |

Beyond Adventure: Louis Becke This book is an exploration of popular late nineteenth-century texts that show Australia - along with Africa, India and the Pacific Islands - to be a preferred site of imperial adventure. Focusing on the period from the advent of the new imperialism in the 1870s to the outbreak of World War I, Robert Dixon looks at a selection of British and Australian writers. Their books, he argues, offer insights into the construction of empire, masculinity, race, and Australian nationhood and identity. Writing the Colonial Adventure shows that the genre of adventure/romance was highly popular throughout this period. The book examines the variety of themes within their narrative form that captured many aspects of imperial ideology. In considering the broader ramifications of these works, Professor Dixon develops an original approach to popular fiction, both for its own sake and as a mode of cultural history Geschichte 1900-2000 Geschichte 1800-1900 Geschichte 1875-1914 gnd rswk-swf Adventure stories, English / History and criticism Popular literature / Great Britain / History and criticism English fiction / 19th century / History and criticism English fiction / 20th century / History and criticism Adventure stories, Australian / History and criticism Masculinity in literature Imperialism in literature Nationalism in literature Colonies in literature Sex role in literature Race in literature Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 gnd rswk-swf Kolonialismus Motiv (DE-588)4164710-5 gnd rswk-swf Kolonialismus (DE-588)4073624-6 gnd rswk-swf Großbritannien Australien (DE-588)4003900-6 gnd rswk-swf Australien (DE-588)4003900-6 g Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 s Kolonialismus Motiv (DE-588)4164710-5 s Geschichte 1875-1914 z 1\p DE-604 Kolonialismus (DE-588)4073624-6 s 2\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-48190-8 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-48439-8 https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9781139085038 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
