Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. In later Victorian England, although classical literature had long dominated education, Roman history and politics became popular areas of study, particularly after Queen Victoria became Empress of India in 1877. Many writers on colonialism drew parallels between the Roman and British Empires, but Sir Charles Lucas' book, first published in 1912, went further in its analysis. He stresses that the causes of an empire's growth and strength are numerous, and that geography and technological development are particularly important. Like writers such as Froude, he attempts to forecast the future development of the British Empire. He also points out differences between the two empires. Roman expansion was not accompanied by widespread emigration, in the way that British colonists settled North America and Australasia, for example. British India, manifesting the military and economic domination of a much larger subject people by a tiny administrative class, bore more resemblance to Roman imperialism. Sir Charles Lucas' book, first published in 1912, drew analogies between the British Empire and that of Rome. Stressing that the causes of an empire's growth and strength are numerous, and that geography and technological development are particularly important, he attempts to forecast the future development of the British Empire.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comparative analysis of the ancient Roman Empire and the modern British Empire, illuminating the characteristics and challenges of each. It explores the impact of distance on empire-building, highlighting the transformative role of scientific advancements in shrinking vast spaces. The author examines the unique relationship between the United Kingdom and its self-governing Dominions, emphasizing the significance of space in shaping their distinct identities. The book delves into the historical evolution of British colonial policy, tracing the transition from imperial rule to self-governance. It also discusses the concept of "youth" in the context of the Dominions' relationship with the "parent" country, emphasizing the need for continuous adjustment and a family-like approach to maintain unity. Ultimately, this book offers valuable insights into the complexities of empire-building, the impact of technology on global connectivity, and the enduring importance of family-like bonds in shaping the future of the British Empire.
