Zusammenfassung: | Examines the networks that linked academics across the British settler world in the age of ‘Victorian’ globalization. Drawing on extensive archival research, remaps the intellectual geographies of Britain and its empire in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries ‘Pietsch’s readable study is a nuanced account of "the social and institutional practices of British and settler English-speaking universities" (p. 8) and explores libraries, scholarships, academic trafficking and appointment practices, and the formalization of imperial university relationships. The book, which is based on the records of the Association of Commonwealth Universities and its precursors, as well as a dozen or more university archives, includes a valuable calendar of dates of foundations of pre–World War II British and Empire universities. It is essential reading for historians of higher education.’ At the start of the twenty-first century we are acutely conscious that universities operate within an entangled world of international scholarly connection. Empire of scholars examines the networks that linked academics across the colonial world in the age of ‘Victorian’ globalization. Stretching across the globe, these networks helped map the boundaries of an expansive but exclusionary ‘British academic world’ that extended beyond the borders of the British Isles. Drawing on extensive archival research conducted in the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, this book remaps the intellectual geographies of Britain and its empire. In doing so, it provides a new context for writing the history of ideas and offers a critical analysis of the connections that helped fashion the global world of universities today |

Drawing on extensive archival research, remaps the intellectual geographies of Britain and its empire in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries ‘Pietsch’s readable study is a nuanced account of "the social and institutional practices of British and settler English-speaking universities" (p. 8) and explores libraries, scholarships, academic trafficking and appointment practices, and the formalization of imperial university relationships. The book, which is based on the records of the Association of Commonwealth Universities and its precursors, as well as a dozen or more university archives, includes a valuable calendar of dates of foundations of pre–World War II British and Empire universities. It is essential reading for historians of higher education.’ At the start of the twenty-first century we are acutely conscious that universities operate within an entangled world of international scholarly connection. Empire of scholars examines the networks that linked academics across the colonial world in the age of ‘Victorian’ globalization. Stretching across the globe, these networks helped map the boundaries of an expansive but exclusionary ‘British academic world’ that extended beyond the borders of the British Isles. Drawing on extensive archival research conducted in the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, this book remaps the intellectual geographies of Britain and its empire. In doing so, it provides a new context for writing the history of ideas and offers a critical analysis of the connections that helped fashion the global world of universities today Geschichte 1850-1939 gnd rswk-swf Colonialism & Imperialism / bicssc HISTORY / Europe / Great Britain / bisach Colonialism & imperialism / European history / United Kingdom, Great Britain / thema Education, Higher / Great Britain / Colonies / History Universities and colleges / Great Britain / Colonies / History Universities and colleges / Great Britain / History Education, Higher / Great Britain / History Education, Higher / Europe / History / 19th century Education, Higher / Europe / History / 20th century Education, Higher / Great Britain / History / 19th century Education, Higher / Great Britain / History / 20th century Netzwerk (DE-588)4171529-9 gnd rswk-swf Kolonie (DE-588)4031790-0 gnd rswk-swf Wissenschaftler (DE-588)4066567-7 gnd rswk-swf Universität (DE-588)4061778-6 gnd rswk-swf Great Britain / Intellectual life / 19th century Great Britain / Intellectual life / 20th century Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 gnd rswk-swf Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 g Universität (DE-588)4061778-6 s Wissenschaftler (DE-588)4066567-7 s Netzwerk (DE-588)4171529-9 s DE-604 Kolonie (DE-588)4031790-0 s Geschichte 1850-1939 z 1\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover Pietsch, Tamson, 1978- Empire of scholars Manchester ; New York : Manchester University Press, 2013 978-0-7190-8502-4 (DE-604)BV041088295 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Paperback Pietsch, Tamson, 1978- Empire of scholars Paperback edition Manchester ; New York : Manchester University Press, 2015 978-0-7190-9930-4 (DE-604)BV042641330 https://doi.org/10.7765/9781784991760 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
