Snapshots of Empire: managing a diverse empire all at once
“This project is the first attempt to examine all the incoming and outgoing correspondence of the Colonial Office and the East India Company/India Office for specific sample periods,” Alan Lester, professor of historical geography at the University of Sussex, told 成人VR视频. Analysis of “snapshots” from 1838, 1857 and 1879 will be a key component in the writing of a new historical geography of empire, he said. “Histories of British colonialism are currently narrated through chronological developments in certain sites, but this project will show how governmental thinking occurred concurrently through geographical comparison and connection.” By “blending history and geography”, Professor Lester continued, this study would be the first to “consider imperial governance as the art of overseeing people and territory everywhere and all at once. In one respect, it returns to an old question in the literature on the British Empire: how was it administered from the ‘centre’? But [this project] promises fresh insight through a unique methodology: taking ‘snapshots’ of imperial correspondence at particular moments regardless of provenance or destination.”
