by Matthew C. Salyer (Author)
Brokering Culture radically recontextualizes conventional views of the relationship between the British Empire and the emergence of the nineteenth-century historical novel. The book focuses on how literary translations of eighteenth-century experiences of empire established the genre as a site of critique for nationalism and historical progress.
