La 4ème de couv. indique : "At the start of the twenty-first century we are acutely
conscious that universities operate within an entangled world of international scholarly
connection. Empire of scholars examines the networks that linked academics across
the colonial world in the age of 'Victorian' globalization. Stretching across the
globe, these networks helped map the boundaries of an expansive but exclusionary 'British
academic world' that extended beyond the borders of the British Isles. Drawing on
extensive archival research conducted in the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New
Zealand and South Africa, this book remaps the intellectual geographies of Britain
and its empire. In doing so, it provides a new context for writing the history of
ideas and offers a critical analysis of the connections that helped fashion the global
world of universities today"
