Hardback. Condition: New. This book curates and examines colonial-era photographs from the late nineteenth to early twentieth centuries sourced from photo-archives of former British and Dutch colonies in Southeast Asia, uncovering how femininities in the Malay world are represented through visual imagery and their role in shaping colonial social relations.Through seven thematic chapters ranging from colonial exhibitions to women's work, fashion, postcard representation and girls' schooling, the book demonstrates how photographs contain dialogic potential to question colonial power structures.
