Kompletný popis

Britain's emergence as the world's first industrial nation has long been treated as a historical fact, but far less attention has been given to the way Britain narrated that transformation-how it framed its own industrial ascent as a universal model, a civilizational template, and ultimately a justification for empire. This book begins from the premise that Britain did not simply industrialize; it told a story about industrialization, a story that traveled as widely as its textiles, railways, and gunboats. That story, shaped by the intertwined forces of economic change, cultural production, and imperial ambition, became one of the most influential narratives of the modern world. It cast Britain as prototype, as origin, as the place where the future had already arrived. And it cast others-colonies, rivals, and imagined audiences across the globe-as peoples who must learn, imitate, or submit.
