Narratives Beyond Texts; Conclusion and Outlook; Notes; Bibliography; IndexSince the mid-1990s, the black experience in Britain has begun to be (re)negotiated intensely, with a strong focus on history. Narrative Projections of a Black British History considers narratives that construct, or engage with, aspects of a black British history. Part I poses the question of what sort of narratives have emerged from, and in turn determine, key events (such as the iconic 'Windrush' moment) and developments and provides basic insights into theoretical frameworks. It also offers a large number of comparative readings, considering both 'factual' and 'fictional' formsRoutledge approaches to history ;2.Black peopleGreat BritainHistoriographyBlack peopleGreat BritainEthnic identityBlack people in literatureGreat BritainRace relationsBlack peopleHistoriography.Black peopleEthnic identity.Black people in literature.941/.00496Pirker Eva Ulrike.966276MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910789920303321Narrative projections of a black British history3824074UNINA
