Explore the gripping chronicles of exploration and missions during the early nineteenth century
Nineteenth Century Collections Online: Europe and Africa, Colonialism and Culture (Formerly known as Europe and Africa: Commerce, Christianity, Civilization, and Conquest) delivers monographs, manuscripts, and newspaper accounts covering issues of economics, world politics, and international strategy to support research in this interdisciplinary area of study of Europe and Africa.
Additionally, this collection includes the features that scholars require -- such as detailed subject indexing and metadata, textual analysis tools, personalized user accounts, and more.
Key topics include:
• Partition of Africa and British imperial policy
• The Anglo-Boer War, 1899-1902
• Jameson Raid
• Geopolitical rivalry between Britain, France, and Germany
• Explorers' use of rivers as highways to the interior of Africa
• Anglo-French relations and the Fashoda incident
• The Witwatersrand gold mining industry
• The dream of an Afrikaner utopia
• Colonial and customary law
• Chinese emigration
• Transnational evangelicalism
Europe and Africa, Colonialism and Culture supports interdisciplinary studies with coverage of subjects including the making of the racial order; peasant and agrarian history; labor history; urban segregation; civil rights history; and family history. The two key themes of this archive -- exploration, military, and missionary activities, and economic and political imperialism in Africa in the last quarter of the nineteenth century -- enables researchers to trace the development of missionary work and glory and gold-seeking explorers in central and southern Africa. Monographs, manuscripts, and newspaper accounts cover issues of economics, world politics, and international strategy; official government documents, political papers of prominent individuals, and press documentation provide a more well-rounded view of the development of British strategic imperatives, French and Belgian desire for the expansion of trade and raw materials, and Germany and Italy's late entrance onto the imperial stage.
