Mistress of Everything: Queen Victoria in Indigenous Worlds

One aim of this collection is to plumb the ideas and interpretations which Indigenous people have formulated and articulated about - or, more accurately, through - Queen Victoria in response to the colonial encounter. It explores the multivalent ways in which Indigenous people in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and South Africa engaged - or sought to engage - Queen Victoria in their lives and struggles, including by incorporating her into their intellectual thought, political rhetoric and narrative traditions.
