Description
Moving Subjects makes a significant contribution to some lively areas of historical scholarship, conceptualizing them in new ways: the history of the body, the history of sexuality, the new imperial' history, the history of settler societies, and the intersections of race, gender, and class in all of these.''--Ann Curthoys, coeditor of Connected Worlds: History in Transnational Perspective These essays are among the very best out there. Taking on larger understandings of empire and colonialism, the authors offer important and unique insights into how one might interrogate old subjects in new ways and, more important, how we might reconstitute those old subjects to better understand the workings of the past.--Damon Salesa, associate professor of history, University of Michigan
