Original publisher's illustrated boards, lettered brown on spine and front cover. pp 13-14 'The essential scheme here, hugely redolent of Robinson Crusoe's mercantile success, as well as the 'solemnity' referred to above point to the rationale for a symposium we convened in Krakw, Poland, 28 September - 2 October 200 (we being Colonial and Postcolonial Studies Centre, University of Silesia, Poland and Southern African Studies Centre, University of Essen, Germany). Inquiring into the literary intricacies of colonial trade, dismantling the commodification processes inherent in the discourse of imperial conquest, and reflecting how they survive in the culture of an overtly post-colonial ear - these were the chief objectives of 'Ebony, Ivory and Tea'. Both the papers delivered and the discussions that followed revealed a number of consistent characteristics'. Fine in wrap around band. Fine. First Edition. Hardback. No Dustjacket.
