Urbanizing the North-eastern Frontier: the frontier intelligentsia and the making of colonial Queenstown, c.1859-1857

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The rich and varied literature on the eastern Cape frontier has not yet reached the north-eastern frontier of the mid-nineteenth century. Urban centres and towns have also been largely ignored. Moreover, the perspective of the Anglophone intellectuals in these towns has rarely been analysed, and has instead been subsumed within a uniform ‘frontier voice’.
