Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hindustani Manual The many editions through which Forbes' Manual has passed are a sufficient proof of its popularity. This popularity is largely due to the fact that it is printed in the Roman character. Though the Roman character with its Short vowels and capitals is, for a beginner (especially for the student that wishes to learn the colloquial only), a great advantage, it must be regarded as a go-cart, to be gradually discarded as more and more progress is made. Before the student has mastered this little book, he should be in a position to dis card the Roman alphabet. TO a beginner, it is Often an aid to memory, to see a new word written both in the Roman and in the foreign character. Lastly, the beginner should practise as much as possible aloud, but this subject is fully dealt with in the Introduction that follows.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hindustani as It Ought to Be Spoken: Supplement Translations are issued as promised in the Preface to the Second Edition of Hindustani as it Ought to be Spoken.7 The Author deprecates any conclusions being drawn from them either as to his ordinary style of English composition, or as to his nationality. The book has two Parts; first, the Exercises, 7 and then The Reader.7 The Translations into English are in all instances close. But in each Part, 7 the closeness opens out a little as you get on. Reading aloud the earlier Translations of each Part 7 will give you an excellent idea of the modifications in respect of order of words, and so forth through which English must pass, before it can be reproduced in Hindustani. A good exercise for the student is to write for himself, translations in sound idiomatic English, carefully thinking out how many ordinary English phrases can be covered by the Hindustani at his command. Thus in Selection No.10, for such a phrase as 'his affairs did not go on in a satisfactory manner, ' (which is hardly 'English, ') you may find half-a-dozen idiomatic modes of translation. The Translations as printed will also give you a clue to English composition as turned out by natives of the country. The figures within brackets in this book refer to the Manual. 'p.' stands for the 'paragraph, ' or section on any page quoted. Thus, (38) means page 38 of the Manual;(73. p. 5) means page 73, para.5 of the same.

Each Exercise in its turn explains and illustrates some new point or points of Usage, till the subject is exhausted, and a fairly complete view of the quality and resources of the language placed before the student. The application of the ordinary principles of clause-analysis to the diction of Hindustani, which occupies the Second Part of the Exercises, is indispensable to the formation of a correct and idiomatic style, whether in speaking or writing.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Student's Manual of the History of India To MY readers. - I have been induced to write this Manual of the History of India to supply a want which I have ob served to exist among aii ciasses or' English people. Most of' my young friends tell me they are never taught anything about India; and while I deplore this, I also see that many persons of mature age are deterred by their length, and other causes, from attempting the perusal of the larger Indian his tories. It occurred to me, therefore, that a complete, but easy history, might be acceptable and useful to all; andi was the more led to this consideration from my own expe rience; for I do not know of any work from Which enough can be learned without difficulty - either to satisfy present requirements, or to induce a more general study. The large Histories of India, besides being voluminous, are costly; most of them are out of print, and thus beyond the reach of ordi nary students. Many of them are only fi'agments - histories of peculiar periods or peoples; and thus reference is required to many works by the student who desires to follow the oom plete history of India in all its branches.

He should also have an eye for those characters of bark, habit, etc., which enable one to recog nise on sight different species in the forest at different times of year. Such characters are dealt with in Part I of the Manual. Those for whom this book is primarily intended have very little time for microscopic work both during their course of training and thereafter. Anatomy therefore is very brieﬂy dealt with in Part I I and only so far as has been considered necessary for a fairly clear idea of the main facts of Physiology and Pathology as given in Parts I I I and V.

This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rough Draft of a Manual of Indian Sylviculture I must now say a few words regarding the plan and scope of the work. In the present inchoate condition of Indian forestry, the very imperfect knowledge we possess of the habits and requirements of our species in their various surroundings, and the impossibility or impracticability of applying any advanced system of culture in the regeneration and treatment of all but an infinitesimal portion of our forests, systems of regeneration and treatment have for us much less importance than the accurate observation of natural phenomena and correct deduction of principles therefrom. For this reason I have laid particular stress on the struggle for existence that is constantly going on between the component individuals of a forest crop, and have made a special study of the conditions which decide the survival of the fittest. This, it seems to me, is an entirely new departure in the teaching of sylviculture and was forced on me from the moment I found myself placed in the midst of a bewilder ing variety of species and conditions, of which the European forester, with his half dozen or so of species having any general distribution in one and the same forest, his stereotyped seasons and his moist climate, has no conception. In India we want to turn out men who can use their eyes and will constantly endeavour to ascribe to their true cause or causes whatever comes under their observation. As to systems of regeneration and treatment we can at present rarely do little more than borrow from our confre'res in Europe. It is only when we have studied thoroughly the habits and requirements of our numerous forest species and the peculiari ties of the Indian climate as it affects the growth of forests, that we shall know how and with what modifications to apply those systems in this country and what entirely new methods it will be necessary to introduce.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annals of Shawnee Methodist Mission and Indian Manual Labor School, 1939 In 1839 Johnson began building on the present site in Johnson county, and the school became an establishment of two thousand acres, containing three large brick school buildings and thirteen smaller buildings, with an enrollment of nearly two hundred Indian boys and girls. For years it was an outpost of civilization on the Western frontier. The Santa F and Oregon trails passed near it doors. Many of the great figures of the old West were entertained here. In 1854 it became the executive offices of the first governor of the territory of Kansas. The legislature convened here to pass the first territorial laws. It was the scene of many conﬂicts between Antislavery and Proslavery parties. During the Civil War the buildings were barracks for union troops and in 1864 a battle was fought across the mission fields.

Oriental vocal sounds by roman letters was adopted; and additions of words, which a farther acquaintance with the language proved to be necessary, were abundantly made in the first edition as well as in the subsequent one of 1820 to this third edition, moreover, besides a still greater increase of words in the body of the work, a copious Index is subjoined, by means of which the publication will prove well fitted to serve, also, as a reversed, or English and Hindustani Dictionary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historians of British colonial rule in India have noted both the place of military might and the imposition of new cultural categories in the making of Empire, but Bhavani Raman, in Document Raj, uncovers a lesser-known story of power: the power of bureaucracy. Drawing on extensive archival research in the files of the East India Company’s administrative offices in Madras, she tells the story of a bureaucracy gone awry in a fever of documentation practices that grew ever more abstract—and the power, both economic and cultural, this created. In order to assert its legitimacy and value within the British Empire, the East India Company was diligent about record keeping. Raman shows, however, that the sheer volume of their document production allowed colonial managers to subtly but substantively manipulate records for their own ends, increasingly drawing the real and the recorded further apart. While this administrative sleight of hand increased the company’s reach and power within the Empire, it also bolstered profoundly new orientations to language, writing, memory, and pedagogy for the officers and Indian subordinates involved. Immersed in a subterranean world of delinquent scribes, translators, village accountants, and entrepreneurial fixers, Document Raj maps the shifting boundaries of the legible and illegible, the legal and illegitimate, that would usher India into the modern world.
