The intimate empire : reading women's autobiography

by Gillian Whitlock

This study examines women's autobiographies and travel writing from 19th-century and contemporary postcolonial contexts. It analyses how these texts reflect processes of colonisation, identity formation, and the intersections of race and gender.
