Such a description of dark skin color was not unusual for eighteenth-century Britons-but neither was the statement that followed: "here, thro' Custom, (being Christians) they account themselves White Men." The Complexion of Race asks how such categories would have been possible, when and how such statements came to seem illogical, and how our understanding of the eighteenth century has been distorted by the imposition of nineteenth and twentieth century notions of race on an earlier period.Wheeler traces the emergence of skin color as a predominant marker of identity in British thought and juxtaposes the Enlightenment's scientific speculation on the biology of race with accounts in travel literature, fiction, and other documents that remain grounded in different models of human variety. As a consequence of a burgeoning empire in the second half of the eighteenth century, English writers were increasingly preoccupied with differentiating the British nation from its imperial outposts by naming traits that set off the rulers from the ruled; although race was one of these traits, it was by no means the distinguishing one. In the fiction of the time, non-European characters could still be "redeemed" by baptism or conversion and the British nation could embrace its mixed-race progeny. In Wheeler's eighteenth century we see the coexistence of two systems of racialization and to detect a moment when an older order, based on the division between Christian and heathen, gives way to a new one based on the assertion of difference between black and white. 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE$2bisac 606 $aSociology / General$2bisac 606 $aRace awareness$xHistory$y18th century$zGreat Britain 606 $aEnglish fiction$xHistory and criticism$y18th century 606 $aDifference (Psychology)$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aRace in literature 606 $aRegions & Countries - Europe$2HILCC 606 $aHistory & Archaeology$2HILCC 606 $aGreat Britain$2HILCC 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE 615 7$aSociology / General 615 0$aRace awareness$xHistory 615 0$aEnglish fiction$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aDifference (Psychology)$xHistory 615 0$aRace in literature 615 7$aRegions & Countries - Europe 615 7$aHistory & Archaeology 615 7$aGreat Britain 676 $a305.8/00941/09033 700 $aWheeler$b Roxann, $01028260 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457369003321 996 $aThe Complexion of Race$92444206 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01898nam0 22004573i 450 001 VAN0254473 005 20230523113530.773 017 70$2N$a9783540347941 100 $a20230210d1966 |0itac50 ba 101 $aeng 102 $aDE 105 $a|||| ||||| 200 1 $aResidues and Duality$eLecture Notes of a Seminar on the Work of A.
