Victorian Narrative Technologies in the Middle East

Bag om Victorian Narrative Technologies in the Middle East

Using narrative theory and postcolonial theory, this study reveals the cultural changes that turned England from a nation that abstained from investing in the internationally conceived Suez Canal to an imperial power who, by 1875, owned it. Arguing that literary genre was itself a technology that spread imperialism, Murray shows how roads, canals, and novels colonized the Middle East.
