The history of the Singapore Botanic Gardens in the British Empire." By Chang Yueh Siang, supervised by Greg Clancey, 2002. Department of History, National University of Singapore. Webpage developed with John Yap, Centre for IT & Applications (CITA), NUS at http://www.fas.nus.edu.sg/hist/tbg/. The author explains that this webpage examines the Gardens' history "from the angle of history of Imperialism," as it is "intrinsically linked with the interests of the British Empire," "serving imperial interests." It is tasefully presented - and do sit through the introduction; it's worth it! |
