Islam and Muslims in Victorian Britain : new perspectives
Gilham, Jamie
Islam and Muslims in Victorian Britain : new perspectives - New York : Bloomsbury Academic, 2023
The contributors reveal 19th-century attitudes and beliefs about Islam and Muslims to demonstrate the plurality of approaches to Islam and Muslims in Britain's past - in politics, academia, literature, the press and other forms of popular culture. They also bring to life the stories and voices of early Muslim settlers and converts to Islam to assess their experiences as Muslims in the Victorian period. Cross-cutting themes include religion and religiosity, 'race' and ethnicity, gender, class, citizenship, empire and imperialism, and prejudice, discrimination and resilience.
