He shows how culture has always carried within it an inner dissonance, and 'Englishness' has always been less fixed and stable than uncertain, fissured by difference and a longing for otherness. At the heart of Victorian racial theory, this re-emerges in the form of colonial desire: an obsession with hybridity, focused explicitly on sexuality and the issue of inter-racial unions. This book breaks new ground in analysing how concepts of culture get formed, and how racialized assumptions continue to pervade them.
