Empire of scholars examines the networks that linked academics across the colonial world in the age of 'Victorian' globalization. Stretching across the globe, these networks helped map the boundaries of an expansive but exclusionary 'British academic world' that extended beyond the borders of the British Isles. Drawing on extensive archival research conducted in the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, this book remaps the intellectual geographies of Britain and its empire. In doing so, it provides a new context for writing the history of ideas and offers a critical analysis of the connections that helped fashion the global world of universities today. 410 0$aStudies in imperialism (Manchester, England) 606 $aEducation, Higher$zGreat Britain$xColonies$xHistory 606 $aUniversities and colleges$zGreat Britain$xColonies$xHistory 606 $aUniversities and colleges$zGreat Britain$xHistory 606 $aEducation, Higher$zGreat Britain$xHistory 610 $aAustralia. 610 $aBritain. 610 $aCanada. 610 $aNetworks. 610 $aNew Zealand. 610 $aPractice. 610 $aSociability. 610 $aSouth Africa. 610 $aSpace. 610 $aempire. 610 $aglobalisation. 610 $aknowledge. 610 $auniversities. 615 0$aEducation, Higher$xColonies$xHistory. 615 0$aUniversities and colleges$xColonies$xHistory. 615 0$aUniversities and colleges$xHistory. 615 0$aEducation, Higher$xHistory. 676 $a370 700 $aPietsch$b Tamson$f1978-$01089040 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822633803321 996 $aEmpire of scholars$94091177 997 $aUNINA
