The concept of traffic underpins historical interpretation and theoretical formulations, and the rhetorics of trade in Victorian usage are contextualised. Understandings of identity emphasise the performative and the negotiation of agency in relation to social and cultural scriptings of gender, class, ethnicity and community. The essays have a wide global range and reach.'This collection of essays takes as its theme an enormously important concept for the nineteenth century: traffic, a term that, in a time of unprecedented commercial and imperial expansion, technological developments, population growth and urbanization, acquired new resonance, and came to signify the intensely transactional nature of modernity. One of Ruskin's most searing critiques of the spiritual condition of England, an invited lecture he delivered in 1864 on the topic of the Bradford Exchange, is entitled ?Traffic', and the word clearly signifies for him all that is wrong with post-industrial capitalism. But this stimulating volume encompasses a range of other significations that have additionally come to accrue around the term, relating for example to inter-cultural exchange, to the circulation of ideas and images, to the commodification of identity, and to literature, art and performance in the market place. The scope of the collection is, appropriately, global, including essays on England's relations of exchange with Australia, New Zealand, North America, the Far East, and the Caribbean. What we are shown ineluctably is that the traffic between Victorian Britain and the reaches of empire, between Home and Abroad, was two-way, a vehicle for cross-cultural encounter, mediation and trade; and that cultural identity is relational, circulatory and always in motion.'?Hilary Fraser, Birkbeck, University of London. 606 $aCommunication and traffic$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$yVictoria, 1837-1901 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCommunication and traffic$xHistory 676 $a306.3094109034 701 $aThomas$b Sue$f1955-$0928666 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463446303321 996 $aVictorian traffic$92087075 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01196nam--2200385---450- 001 990003240510203316 005 20090511124744.0 010 $a88-420-6839-X 035 $a000324051 035 $aUSA01000324051 035 $a(ALEPH)000324051USA01 035 $a000324051 100 $a20090511d2003----km-y0itay50------ba 101 $aita 102 $aIT 105 $a||||||||001yy 200 1 $afascismo e gli emigrati$ela parabola dei Fasci italiani all'estero (1920-1943)$fa cura di Emilio Franzina e Matteo Sanfilippo 210 $aRoma$aBari$cLaterza$d2003 215 $aXXX, 193 p.$d23 cm 225 2 $aQuadrante Laterza$v119 410 0$12001$aQuadrante Laterza$v119 454 0$12001 606 0 $aImmigrati italiani$xAtteggiamento verso il fascismo$2BNCF 676 $a324.245029 702 1$aFRANZINA,$bEmilio 702 1$aSANFILIPPO,$bMatteo 801 0$aIT$bsalbc$gISBD 912 $a990003240510203316 951 $aX.3.B. 5201$b1809 L.G.$cX.3.B.$d00189003 959 $aBK 969 $aUMA 979 $aALESSANDRA$b90$c20090511$lUSA01$h1246 979 $aALESSANDRA$b90$c20090511$lUSA01$h1247 996 $aFascismo e gli emigrati$91012788 997 $aUNISA
