Descripción:
The colonial literature of the British Empire often depicted the imperial infrastructure: railways, telegraph wires, steamships and canals. With a focus on writers in South Africa and India, the author uses ‘infrastructural reading’ to demonstrate the connection between the depictions of these urban developments and anti-imperial resistance.
