| Zusammenfassung: | For those of us who live in capitalist societies, time keeping and time observance are pillars that structure our everyday lives. Nanni’s thought-provoking book is a reminder of one very significant moment in history when those pillars were defined by reference to a particular kind of colonial encounter, which is something that will be of interest to students of empire, historians of time, and post-colonial scholars The Colonisation of Time is a highly original and long overdue examination of the ways that western-European and specifically British concepts and rituals of time were imposed on other cultures as a fundamental component of colonisation during the nineteenth century. Based on a wealth of primary sources, it explores the intimate relationship between the colonisation of time and space in two British settler-colonies (Victoria, Australia and the Cape Colony, South Africa) and its instrumental role in the exportation of Christianity, capitalism, and modernity, thus adding new depth to our understanding of imperial power and of the ways in which it was exercised and limited. All those intrigued by the concept of time will find this book of interest, for it illustrates how western-European time’s rise to a position of global dominance—from the clock to the seven-day week—is one of the most pervasive, enduring and taken-for-granted legacies of colonisation in today’s world This impressive book is the first sustained treatment of the effective British colonisation of indigenous time practices. Analysing both the Cape Colony and Australia, Nanni deftly draws our attention to the enormous significance of the temporal as well as the spatial, for the making of the colonial world' -- Alan Lester, Professor of Historical Geography at the University of Sussex |

Conclusion: From colonisation to globalisation -- Select Bibliography -- Index For those of us who live in capitalist societies, time keeping and time observance are pillars that structure our everyday lives. Nanni’s thought-provoking book is a reminder of one very significant moment in history when those pillars were defined by reference to a particular kind of colonial encounter, which is something that will be of interest to students of empire, historians of time, and post-colonial scholars The Colonisation of Time is a highly original and long overdue examination of the ways that western-European and specifically British concepts and rituals of time were imposed on other cultures as a fundamental component of colonisation during the nineteenth century. Based on a wealth of primary sources, it explores the intimate relationship between the colonisation of time and space in two British settler-colonies (Victoria, Australia and the Cape Colony, South Africa) and its instrumental role in the exportation of Christianity, capitalism, and modernity, thus adding new depth to our understanding of imperial power and of the ways in which it was exercised and limited. All those intrigued by the concept of time will find this book of interest, for it illustrates how western-European time’s rise to a position of global dominance—from the clock to the seven-day week—is one of the most pervasive, enduring and taken-for-granted legacies of colonisation in today’s world This impressive book is the first sustained treatment of the effective British colonisation of indigenous time practices. Analysing both the Cape Colony and Australia, Nanni deftly draws our attention to the enormous significance of the temporal as well as the spatial, for the making of the colonial world' -- Alan Lester, Professor of Historical Geography at the University of Sussex Geschichte 1800-1900 gnd rswk-swf Colonialism & Imperialism / bicssc HISTORY / Europe / Great Britain / bisach Colonialism & imperialism / European history / United Kingdom, Great Britain / thema Time Imperialism / History Indigenous peoples / South Africa / History Indigenous peoples / Australia / History Indigenes Volk (DE-588)4187207-1 gnd rswk-swf Kolonie (DE-588)4031790-0 gnd rswk-swf Zeitwahrnehmung (DE-588)4067473-3 gnd rswk-swf Great Britain / Colonies / Social life and customs Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 gnd rswk-swf Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 g Kolonie (DE-588)4031790-0 s Indigenes Volk (DE-588)4187207-1 s Zeitwahrnehmung (DE-588)4067473-3 s Geschichte 1800-1900 z DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover Nanni, Giordano The colonisation of time Manchester : Manchester University Press, 2012 978-0-7190-8271-9 (DE-604)BV039980527 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Paperback Nanni, Giordano The colonisation of time Manchester : Manchester University Press, 2016 978-0-7190-9129-2 https://doi.org/10.7765/9781526118394 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
