| Summary: | Considers how notions of Britishness were constructed and promoted through architecture, landscape, painting, sculpture and literature. Maps important moments in the self-conscious evolution of the idea of ‘nation’ against a broad cultural historical framework. An important addition to the field of postcolonial studies as it looks at how British identity creation affected those living in England – most study in this area has thus far focused on the effect of such identity creation upon the colonial subject. Broad appeal due to wide subject matter covered. Examines just how ‘constructed’ a national identity is – past and present The need for a single public culture - or the creation of an authentic identity - is fundamental to our understanding of nationalism and nationhood. But how are these cultural identities expressed? This book examines British imperial and colonial national identities within their political and social contexts. By considering the export, adoption and creation of such cultural identities, these essays show how nationhood and nationalism are self-consciously defined tools designed to focus and inspire loyalty. As such, they are integral to the larger process of constructing a public culture |

Gentlemen connoisseurs and capitalists: Modern British imperial identity in the 1903 Delhi Durbar’s exhibition of Indian art - Julie F. Codell -- - 9. Albion’s legacy: Myth, history and the matter of Britain - Sam Smiles -- - 10. Architecture and ‘national projection’ between the wars - Mark Crinson Considers how notions of Britishness were constructed and promoted through architecture, landscape, painting, sculpture and literature. Maps important moments in the self-conscious evolution of the idea of ‘nation’ against a broad cultural historical framework. An important addition to the field of postcolonial studies as it looks at how British identity creation affected those living in England – most study in this area has thus far focused on the effect of such identity creation upon the colonial subject. Broad appeal due to wide subject matter covered. Examines just how ‘constructed’ a national identity is – past and present The need for a single public culture - or the creation of an authentic identity - is fundamental to our understanding of nationalism and nationhood. But how are these cultural identities expressed? This book examines British imperial and colonial national identities within their political and social contexts. By considering the export, adoption and creation of such cultural identities, these essays show how nationhood and nationalism are self-consciously defined tools designed to focus and inspire loyalty. As such, they are integral to the larger process of constructing a public culture 2004 Geschichte 1760-1902 gnd rswk-swf Humanities / History / bicssc Colonialism & imperialism / bicssc HISTORY / Europe / Great Britain / bisach Colonialism & imperialism / European history / United Kingdom, Great Britain / thema National characteristics, British Group identity / Great Britain National characteristics, Irish Ethnology / Great Britain Aesthetics, British Imperialism Ästhetik (DE-588)4000626-8 gnd rswk-swf Nationalbewusstsein (DE-588)4041282-9 gnd rswk-swf Imperialismus (DE-588)4026651-5 gnd rswk-swf Great Britain / Ethnic relations Great Britain / Civilization Europe / United Kingdom, Great Britain / bicssc Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 gnd rswk-swf (DE-588)4143413-4 Aufsatzsammlung gnd-content Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 g Nationalbewusstsein (DE-588)4041282-9 s Imperialismus (DE-588)4026651-5 s Ästhetik (DE-588)4000626-8 s Geschichte 1760-1902 z DE-604 Arnold, Dana 1961- (DE-588)138967008 edt Elektronische Reproduktion von Cultural identities and the aesthetics of Britishness Manchester ; New York : Manchester University Press, 2004 0-7190-6768-5 0-7190-6769-3 (DE-604)BV019581194 https://doi.org/10.7765/9781526117519 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
