The Imperial Subject: Geography and Travel in the Work of Mary Kingsley and Halford Mackinder |
|
| Abstract: | How do places shape and interact with subjectivity? By exploring how a change of location had implications for the way the effects of imperialism were registered, this paper shows how imperialism shaped subjectivity both at home and abroad. It takes the travels and mountain climbing of Mary Kingsley and Halford Mackinder as case studies for a consideration of gender as an effect and as a part of these processes. |
