The period from 1895 to 1914 witnessed remarkable advances in public health and medicine. Concurrent with this time of improving clinical hygiene, Britain was consolidating its tropical empire in West Africa and making significant changes regarding its imperial policy. Imperial Tropical Medicine charts the co-evolution of these two movements, suggesting that their parallel development was far from coincidental and revealing medicine and health as one of the most powerful of late-colonial discourses. Looking for the first time at contemporary exhibitions, Johnson investigates a display put together in 1900 devoted solely to the presentation of 'kit' for healthy living in the tropical colonies and unravels the intriguing histories of commodities including tropical clothing and medicine chests. Journeying through both metropolitan and colonial sites and considering the perspectives of politicians, businessmen, missionaries, scientists, medical officers and local ruling elite, as well as that of ordinary British, African and South Asian men and women, this fascinating book tells the story of a changing, complex medical discipline and Empire that were inseparably intertwined.

The theory of “literary worlds” has become increasingly important in comparative and world literatures. But how are the often-contradictory elements of Eastern and Western literatures to cohere in the new worlds such contact creates? Drawing on the latest work in philosophical logic and analytic Asian philosophy, this monograph proposes a new model of literary worlds that is best suited to comparative literature dealing with Western and East Asian traditions. Unlike much discussion of world literature anchored in North American traditions, featured here is the transnational work of artists, philosophers, and poets writing in English, French, Japanese and Mandarin in the twentieth century. Rather than imposing sharp borders, this book suggests that vague boundaries link Eastern and Western literary works and traditions, and that degrees of distance can better help us to see the multiple dimensions that both distinguish and join together literary worlds East and West. As such, it enables us to grasp not only how East Asian and Western writers translate one another’s works into their own languages and traditions, but also how modern writers East and West modify their own traditions in order to make them fit in the new constellation of literary worlds brought about by the complex flow of literary information across twentieth-century Eurasia.
