These very aspects, however, made it a useful and appealing literary mode for British imperial propagandists in the late nineteenth century. Though stage melodrama may have been declining in prominence, the melodramatic style influenced many late-Victorian genres outside of the theater-for example, imperialist ballads, detective novels, travel narratives, and romances-and developed a complicated relationship with British imperial discourse. Melodramatic Imperial Writing: From the Sepoy Rebellion to Cecil Rhodes locates melodrama within a new and considerably more complicated history of British imperialism: beyond its use in constructing imperialist fantasies or supporting unjust policies, the melodramatic style also enabled writers to upset narratives of British imperial destiny or racial superiority. This book examines works by both canonical and lesser-known authors writing after the Sepoy Rebellion, including Wilkie Collins, Marie Corelli, Charles Dickens, H. Rider Haggard, W. E. Henley, Rudyard Kipling, Olive Schreiner, and Robert Louis Stevenson, and encompasses representations of British imperialism from India, to South Africa and the South Seas"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aEnglish prose literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aMelodrama, English$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLiterature and society$zEngland$xHistory 606 $aImperialism in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnglish prose literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aMelodrama, English$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aLiterature and society$xHistory. 615 0$aImperialism in literature. 676 $a828/.08 700 $aHultgren$b Neil$0990835 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464439203321 996 $aMelodramatic imperial writing$92267168 997 $aUNINA LEADER 06182oam 22006731 450 001 9910785491503321 005 20230126204624.0 010 $a1-136-53677-9 010 $a1-136-53676-0 010 $a1-84977-577-X 024 8 $a10.4324/9781849775779 035 $a(CKB)2670000000058396 035 $a(EBL)605286 035 $a(OCoLC)689997474 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000456779 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12184407 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000456779 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10408696 035 $a(PQKB)11030539 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC605286 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL605286 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr11165034 035 $a(OCoLC)1088904293 035 $a(OCoLC-P)1088904293 035 $a(FlBoTFG)9781849775779 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000058396 100 $a20190117e20192010 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aAIDS and rural livelihoods $edynamics and diversity in Sub-Saharan Africa /$fedited by Anke Niehof, Gabriel Rugalema, and Stuart Gillespie 205 $a1st 210 1$aLondon :$cRoutledge,$d2019. 215 $a1 online resource (249 p.) 300 $aPreviously issued in print: London: Earthscan, 2010. 300 $aPreface1.

Three decades after the disease was first recognized, the annual death toll from AIDS exceeds that from wars, famine and floods combined. Yet despite millions of dollars of aid and research, there has previously been little detailed on-the-ground analysis of the multifaceted impacts on rural people.Filling that gap, this book brings together recent evidence of AIDS impacts on rural households, livelihoods, and agricultural practice in sub-Saharan Africa. There is particular emphasis on the role of women in affected households, and on the situation of children. The book is unique in presenting micro-level information collected by original empirical research in a range of African countries, and showing how well-grounded conclusions on trends, impacts and local responses can be applied to the design of HIV-responsive policies and programmes. AIDS impacts are more diverse than we previously thought, and local responses more varied - sometimes innovative, sometimes desperate. The book represents a major contribution to our understanding of the impacts of AIDS in the epidemic's heartland, and how these can be managed at different levels. 606 $aAIDS (Disease)$xEconomic aspects$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan 606 $aAIDS (Disease)$xSocial aspects$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan 606 $aRural health$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan 615 0$aAIDS (Disease)$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aAIDS (Disease)$xSocial aspects 615 0$aRural health 676 $a362.196/979200967 702 $aNiehof$b Anke$f1948- 702 $aRugalema$b Gabriel 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910785491503321 996 $aAIDS and rural livelihoods$93829257 997 $aUNINA
