Focusing on imperial agents, their narratives of progress, and their political aims and strategies, it asks whether Enlightenment gave birth to a new colonialism between 1760 and 1820. Has Enlightenment provided the cultural and intellectual origins of modern colonialism? For decades, historians of political thought, philosophy, and literature have debated this question. On one side, many postcolonial authors believe that enlightened rationalism helped delegitimize non-European cultures. On the other side, some historians of ideas and literature are willing to defend at least some eighteenth-century philosophers whom they consider to have been ?anti-colonialists?. Surprisingly enough, both sides have focused on literary and philosophical texts, but have rarely taken political and social practice into account. 410 0$aCambridge Imperial and Post-Colonial Studies,$x2635-1633 606 $aImperialism 606 $aWorld politics 606 $aWorld history 606 $aCivilization?History 606 $aIntellectual life?History 606 $aImperialism and Colonialism$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/722000 606 $aPolitical History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911080 606 $aWorld History, Global and Transnational History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/719000 606 $aCultural History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/723000 606 $aIntellectual Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/729000 615 0$aImperialism. 615 0$aWorld politics. 615 0$aWorld history. 615 0$aCivilization?History. 615 0$aIntellectual life?History. 615 14$aImperialism and Colonialism. 615 24$aPolitical History. 615 24$aWorld History, Global and Transnational History. 615 24$aCultural History. 615 24$aIntellectual Studies. 676 $a325.32 702 $aTricoire$b Damien$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254773703321 996 $aEnlightened Colonialism$92203655 997 $aUNINA
