Book Synopsis European Adventurers in North India by : Uma Shanker Pandey
Download or read book European Adventurers in North India written by Uma Shanker Pandey and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2019-07-08 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how European, particularly French, adventurers shaped early modern India. It highlights the significant contributions of these adventurers in social, political, economic, and intellectual life of north India in the 18th and the 19th centuries. The author examines how the French adventurers played a key role in bringing Western science and ideas to a polity in flux. He examines the role of individuals like René Madec, Sombre, De Boigne, Perron, Gentil, Canaple, Delamarr, Sonson, and Pedrose, who made instrumental contributions in modernising armies of pre-modern states in South Asia. The volume also underlines how French adventurers’ commercial networks developing from their enterprises opened up markets in the heartlands of north India for European consumers. Further, it brings to the fore intellectual pursuits of the leading French figures such as Anquetil Duperron, Polier, Gentil, De Boigne, and Perron, whose engagement with Indian literature opened a new chapter framing studies of the Occident. Rich in French, English, and translated Persian archival resources, this book will be of interest to scholars and researchers of colonial history, early modern history, military history, and South Asian studies.
Book Synopsis Race and Power in British India by : Valerie Anderson
Download or read book Race and Power in British India written by Valerie Anderson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-06-09 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the nineteenth century the British had ruled India for over a hundred years, and had consolidated their power over the sub-continent. Until 1858, when Queen Victoria assumed sovereignty following the Indian Rebellion, the country was run by the East India Company - by this time a hybrid of state and commercial enterprises and eloquently and fiercely attacked as intrinsically immoral and dangerous by Edmund Burke in the late 1700s. Seeking to go beyond the statutes and ceremony, and show the reality of the interactions between rulers and ruled on a local level, this book looks at one of the most interesting phenomena of British India - the 'Eurasians'. The adventurers of the early years of Indian occupation arrived alone, and in taking 'native' mistresses and wives, created a race of administrators who were 'others' to both the native population and the British ruling class. These Anglo-Indian people existed in the zone between the colonizer and the colonized, and their history provides a wonderfully rich source for understanding Indian social history, race and colonial hegemony.
Book Synopsis Taming the Imperial Imagination by : Martin J. Bayly
Download or read book Taming the Imperial Imagination written by Martin J. Bayly and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-19 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taming the Imperial Imagination marks a novel intervention into the debate on empire and international relations, and offers a new perspective on nineteenth-century Anglo-Afghan relations. Martin J. Bayly shows how, throughout the nineteenth century, the British Empire in India sought to understand and control its peripheries through the use of colonial knowledge. Addressing the fundamental question of what Afghanistan itself meant to the British at the time, he draws on extensive archival research to show how knowledge of Afghanistan was built, refined and warped by an evolving colonial state. This knowledge informed policy choices and cast Afghanistan in a separate legal and normative universe. Beginning with the disorganised exploits of nineteenth-century explorers and ending with the cold strategic logic of the militarised 'scientific frontier', this book tracks the nineteenth-century origins of contemporary policy 'expertise' and the forms of knowledge that inform interventions in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere today.

Download or read book THE INDIA THEY SAW (VOL-4) written by Meenakshi Jain and published by Prabhat Prakashan. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the wake of the commercial and political expansion of Europe in the eighteenth century; there was a remarkable increase in the number of Europeans visiting India; not merely for trade but also in search of her fabled ancient wisdom. The European rediscovery of India's cultural heritage led to the emergence of Orientalist scholarship and a belief that India was the original home of the arts and sciences. In India the great patron of Indie studies was the Governor-General; Warren Hastings. He gathered around himself a select group that included Charles Wilkins; Nathaniel Halhed; and William Jones; the most famous of the Orientalists. But the growing political ascendancy of the British in India dampened the early exuberance for Indie studies. As conquerors; the British began to feel the need to justify their conquests and exalt their own race and religion. Several other forces were at work to turn the tide against India. The Industrial Revolution in England had created the need to convert India into a market for machine-made British goods. Meanwhile; the Evangelicals pressed for the Christianization and Anglicization of India; which; they felt; would lead to permanent British rule and also change Indian lifestyle to the advantage of British manufacturers. The Evangelicals allied with the Utilitarians to launch a tirade against Indian culture and force the retreat of the Orientalists. This volume covers the period from A.D. 1700 to 1850. A significant number of travellers visited India during this century and a half. The accounts available to us are primarily those written in English. A considerable amount of the work in French and the rich accounts of the early Danish missionaries on the Coromandel Coast; for instance; have yet to be translated into English.
