A History of Violence? Islam, English Orientalism, and the Bombay Riot of 1851

Magnusson, Andrew D.

Pages: 3 –26

[This article traces English conceptions of the relationship between Islam and violence as they developed through the eighteenth century.

Maeer, Alistair

Pages: 27 –55

[In the seventeenth century, English maritime activity along Islamic shores played a vital role in the growth of English maritime prowess and empire. This chapter analyzes English nautical cartographic sources, in conjunction with Edward Barlow’s illustrated mariner’s journal (1659–1703), as...

‘Far from the Orthodox Road’: Conceptualizing the Shiʿa in the Nineteenth-Century Official Mind

Meleady, Conor

Pages: 57 –85

[While scholarly accounts concerning imperial Britain’s engagement with Islam have tended to emphasize the image of a monolithic, essentialist ‘Islam’ which apparently dominated British minds in the Age of Empire, this chapter offers an alternative perspective, arguing that British officialdom...

Allies and Adversaries: Anglo-Ottoman Boundary Negotiation in the Middle East, 1906–1914

Tallon, James

Pages: 89 –105

Olmstead, Justin Quinn

Pages: 107 –123

[When considering British foreign policy at the beginning of the First World War, it is only on rare occasions that the Ottoman Empire comes to mind. Even more uncommon, is the idea that the events that led to the Ottoman’s joining the Central Powers resulted from policies developed under British...

‘A Considerable Effect’: Winston Churchill and Wilfrid S. Blunt’s Legacy

Dockter, Warren

Pages: 125 –146

[By the 1880s, Wilfrid Scawen Blunt had become ‘the avatar for anti-imperial causes’ and an active force for the ‘regeneration of Islam’ by means of ‘agitation and negotiation as well as by poetry and horse breeding.’ It is odd then to think that such an anti-imperialist would inadvertently...

‘Britain, India, and the Somaliland Campaigns of 1901–04’

Blakeley, Derek

Pages: 149 –168

[The Somaliland Campaigns of 1901–1904 were, perhaps, the final ‘Victorian’ colonial expedition of the British Empire. In subsequent years, the rising threat of Imperial Germany and the ententes with France and Russia would focus British attention on European tensions. But, these expeditions...

Legislating Gender in Mandate Palestine: Colonial Laws on Midwifery, Employment, and Marriage

Brownson, Elizabeth

‘What Britain Has Done for Islam’: British Propaganda to the Islamic World During World War II, 1939–1942

Wichhart, Stefanie

Pages: 197 –223

[With the outbreak of World War II, both Britain and Germany developed propaganda campaigns that portrayed themselves as sympathetic to Islam and protectors of the Islamic tradition, while simultaneously working to undermine the others’ claim to this same allegiance. Axis propaganda to the...

British Encounters with the ‘Islamic World’ 1921–1989

Catterall, Pippa

Pages: 225 –250

[Before the Great War, the British Empire already had more Muslim subjects than any other polity. To these millions in India, Malaya and elsewhere were now added many more in the Middle East. The overstretched British imperial state consequently faced many strategic challenges in the region,...
