Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Narrative of a Three Months' March in India: And a Residence in the Dooab Most of the notes, as well as the drawings, were hastily made during the bustle and con fusion attendant upon marching, but they are faithful representations; and whilst the note book was the recipient of remarks and first impressions, the drawing pencil was ever the favourite companion of a more leisure hour. Should there appear, in any of her pages, the s'ightest tinge of acrimony, it will, she trusts, be attributed to its true source, viz. Regret at the sight of talents perverted, and time misapplied. That they are free from per sonal remarks she feels satisfied; and in the earnest hope that her volume may be the means of conveying entertainment to some, and offence to no one, she requires only good humour in its perusal, and lenity to those imperfections which the distractions attendant upon a nume rous family, and the faults of an inexperienced author, have necessarily induced.

Book Synopsis Women's Travel Writings in India 1777–1854 by : Éadaoin Agnew
Download or read book Women's Travel Writings in India 1777–1854 written by Éadaoin Agnew and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ‘memsahibs’ of the British Raj in India are well-known figures today, frequently depicted in fiction, TV and film. In recent years, they have also become the focus of extensive scholarship. Less familiar to both academics and the general public, however, are the eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century precursors to the memsahibs of the Victorian and Edwardian era. Yet British women also visited and resided in India in this earlier period, witnessing first-hand the tumultuous, expansionist decades in which the East India Company established British control over the subcontinent. Some of these travellers produced highly regarded accounts of their experiences, thereby inaugurating a rich tradition of women’s travel writing about India. In the process, they not only reported events and developments in the subcontinent, they also contributed to them, helping to shape opinion and policy on issues such as colonial rule, religion, and social reform. This new set in the Chawton House Library Women’s Travel Writing series assembles seven of these accounts, six by British authors (Jemima Kindersley, Maria Graham, Eliza Fay, Ann Deane, Julia Maitland and Mary Sherwood) and one by an American (Harriet Newell). Their narratives – here reproduced for the first time in reset scholarly editions – were published between 1777 and 1854, and recount journeys undertaken in India, or periods of residence there, between the 1760s and the 1830s. Collectively they showcase the range of women’s interests and activities in India, and also the variety of narrative forms, voices and personae available to them as travel writers. Some stand squarely in the tradition of Enlightenment ethnography; others show the growing influence of Evangelical beliefs. But all disrupt any lingering stereotypes about women’s passivity, reticence and lack of public agency in this period, when colonial women were not yet as sequestered and debarred from cross-cultural contact as they would later be during the Raj. Their narratives are consequently a useful resource to students and researchers across multiple fields and disciplines, including women’s writing, travel writing, colonial and postcolonial studies, the history of women’s educational and missionary work, and Romantic-era and nineteenth-century literature. This volume includes two texts, Ann Deane, A Tour Through the Upper Provinces of Hindostan (1823) and Julia Maitland, Letters from Madras (1846).

Book Synopsis Women Adventurers, 1750-1900 by : Mary F. McVicker
Download or read book Women Adventurers, 1750-1900 written by Mary F. McVicker and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-05-07 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past quarter-century has seen a number of biographies and anthologies on women travelers but to date there has been little comprehensive reference work done on the travelers themselves. Some of the women were eccentric, many were very adventurous, some were in search of a different world... British women make up the largest portion of the book's focus--these particular adventurers being backed in many cases by family money, scientific inquiry, and the ready availability of the British seafaring tradition. Entries include the woman's family background, her educational history, and a summary of her world travels, with in many cases evocative extracts from their writings (many are literary gems).
Download or read book Burning the Dead written by David Arnold and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Burning the Dead traces the evolution of cremation in India and the South Asian diaspora across the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Through interconnected histories of movement, space, identity, and affect, it examines how the so-called traditional practice of Hindu cremation on an open-air funeral pyre was culturally transformed and materially refashioned under British rule, following intense Western hostility, colonial sanitary acceptance, and Indian adaptation. David Arnold examines the critical reception of Hindu cremation abroad, particularly in Britain, where India formed a primary reference point for the cremation debates of the late nineteenth century, and explores the struggle for official recognition of cremation among Hindu and Sikh communities around the globe. Above all, Arnold foregrounds the growing public presence and assertive political use made of Hindu cremation, its increasing social inclusivity, and its close identification with Hindu reform movements and modern Indian nationhood.
