Demonstrates how ideas of the global took root in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century descriptions of Southeast Asia. The author turns to the works of Adam Smith, Thomas De Quincey, Abdullah bin Abdul Kadir, and Joseph Conrad, four authors who discuss the Malay Archipelago during the rise and consolidation of the British Empire.
