The British Image of India
A STUDY IN THE LITERATURE OF IMPERIALISM, 1880-1960
By
ALLEN JAY GREENBERGER,
Pitzer College, Claremont, California.
British
policy toward India grew out of a combination of factors, among them the way
the British viewed India, the Indians, and themselves. Since the 1880s, when
Kipling made India a major theme
in
British fiction, the changing image of
India can be traced through literature, and Mr. Greenberger's book examines
.orne 130 works by 50 British authors.

Olive Schreiner
A SELECTION
Edited
by
UYS KRIGE. Olive Schreiner, once a forerunner in the movement
for woman's emancipation, a controversial author, admired and befriended by
the literati, is, however, little known today. Uys Krige has made this selection
from all the writings of this remarkable woman. She was passionately South
African and championed both the Boers and the non-white peoples. Uncannily
prophetic, her statements on the future of South Africa, on group relationships
and on feminism still have great impact. Uys Krige's introduction is itself a
major contribution to the current reappraisal of Olive Schreiner.
