H. Rider Haggard on the Imperial Frontier: The Political and Literary Contexts of His African RomancesELT Press, 2006 - 294 páginas "This is the first book-length study of H. R. H.'s African fiction. It revised the image of Rider Haggard (1836-1925) as a mere writer of adventure stories, a brassy propagandist for British imperialism. Professor Monsman places Haggard's imaginative works both in the context of colonial fiction writing and in the framework of subsequent postcolonial debates about history and its representation."--BOOK JACKET. |
