The Riot of Englishness: Migrancy, Nomadism, and the Redemption of the Nation -- Afterword: Something Rich and Strange.In a 1968 speech on British immigration policy, Enoch Powell insisted that although a black man may be a British citizen, he can never be an Englishman. This book explains why such a claim was possible to advance and impossible to defend. Ian Baucom reveals how "Englishness" emerged against the institutions and experiences of the British Empire, rendering English culture subject to local determinations and global negotiations. In his view, the Empire was less a place where England exerted control than where it lost command of its own identity. Analyzing imperial crisis zones--including the Indian Mutiny of 1857, the Morant Bay uprising of 1865, the Amritsar massacre of 1919, and the Brixton riots of 1981--Baucom asks if the building of the empire completely refashioned England's narratives of national identity. To answer this question, he draws on a surprising range of sources: Victorian and imperial architectural theory, colonial tourist manuals, lexicographic treatises, domestic and imperial cricket culture, country house fetishism, and the writings of Ruskin, Kipling, Ford Maddox Ford, Forster, Rhys, C.L.R. James, Naipaul, and Rushdie--and representations of urban riot on television, in novels, and in parliamentary sessions. Emphasizing the English preoccupation with place, he discusses some crucial locations of Englishness that replaced the rural sites of Wordsworthian tradition: the Morant Bay courthouse, Bombay's Gothic railway station, the battle grounds of the 1857 uprising in India, colonial cricket fields, and, last but not least, urban riot zones.English literature20th centuryHistory and criticismNational characteristics, English, in literatureCommonwealth literature (English)History and criticismEnglish literature19th centuryHistory and criticismGroup identity in literatureDecolonization in literatureImperialism in literatureColonies in literatureRace in literatureGreat BritainColoniesHistoryEnglandCivilizationEnglish literatureHistory and criticism.National characteristics, English, in literature.Commonwealth literature (English)History and criticism.English literatureHistory and criticism.Group identity in literature.Decolonization in literature.Imperialism in literature.Colonies in literature.Race in literature.820.9/358Baucom Ian1967-1753370MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910305551403321Out of place4189206UNINA03274oas 2201141 a 450 991014402920332120260218113020.01538-7755(DE-599)ZDB2036781-8(OCoLC)45810607(CONSER) 2002213730(CKB)954925595540(DE-599)2036781-8(EXLCZ)9995492559554020010129a19919999 sy aengurmnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierCancer epidemiology biomarkers & preventionPhiladelphia American Association for Cancer ResearchRefereed/Peer-reviewedDescription from Vol. 8, no. 1 (Jan. 1, 1999); title from title screen (viewed Feb. 5, 2002).1055-9965 Cancer epidemiology, biomarkers, and preventionCancer epidemiol. biomark. prev.CancerEpidemiologyPeriodicalsCancerPreventionPeriodicalsTumor markersDiagnostic usePeriodicalsNeoplasmsprevention & controlNeoplasmsgeneticsGenetic MarkersCancerÉpidémiologiePériodiquesCancerPréventionPériodiquesMarqueurs tumorauxUtilisation diagnostiquePériodiquesMarqueurs génétiquesCancerEpidemiologyfast(OCoLC)fst00845357CancerPreventionfast(OCoLC)fst00845452Tumor markersDiagnostic usefast(OCoLC)fst01158754periodicals.aatPeriodicals.fastPeriodicals.lcgftPériodiques.rvmgfCancerEpidemiologyCancerPreventionTumor markersDiagnostic useNeoplasmsprevention & control.Neoplasmsgenetics.Genetic Markers.CancerÉpidémiologieCancerPréventionMarqueurs tumorauxUtilisation diagnostiqueMarqueurs génétiques.CancerEpidemiology.CancerPrevention.Tumor markersDiagnostic use.614American Association for Cancer ResearchPITPITDRBOCLCQNSDMYGOCLCQCITOCLCQOCLCFEUWOCLCQBUFOCLCOU3WOCLCOAU@OCLCOWYUOCLCOOCLCAVT2OCLCOOCLCALEAUBOCLCOOCLCAOCLCQOCLCLUABOTZLIPXFHOCLCLOCLCQJOURNAL9910144029203321Cancer epidemiology, biomarkers & prevention1031423UNINA
