1948年帝国温德鲁什的到来被理解为战后英国移民潮的代名词。然而，这一事件的文化记忆是不稳定的历史记录的书面证据。尽管如此，这些差异并不能揭示事件的某些更真实的版本，而是断言温德鲁什作为文化想象的到达时刻的潜力。
The arrival of the Empire Windrush in 1948 is understood as metonymic of the post‐war boom in immigration into Britain. However, the cultural memory of this episode is unsettled by the documentary evidence of the historical record. Nevertheless, these discrepancies do not serve to reveal some truer version of the event but instead assert the potency of the Windrush as a culturally imagined moment of arrival.
