Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In existence for 258 years, the English East India Company ran a complex, highly integrated global trading network. It supplied the tea for the Boston Tea Party, the cotton textiles used to purchase slaves in Africa, and the opium for China’s nineteenth-century addiction. In India it expanded from a few small coastal settlements to govern territories that far exceeded the British Isles in extent and population. It minted coins in its name, established law courts and prisons, and prosecuted wars with one of the world’s largest armies. Over time, the Company developed a pronounced and aggressive colonialism that laid the foundation for Britain’s Eastern empire. A study of the Company, therefore, is a study of the rise of the modern world. In clear, engaging prose, Ian Barrow sets the rise and fall of the Company into political, economic, and cultural contexts and explains how and why the Company was transformed from a maritime trading entity into a territorial colonial state. Excerpts from eighteen primary documents illustrate the main themes and ideas discussed in the text. Maps, illustrations, a glossary, and a chronology are also included.

Book excerpt: This is the first short history of the East India Company from its founding in 1600 to its demise in 1857, designed for students and academics. The Company was central to the growth of the British Empire in India, to the development of overseas trade, and to the rise of shareholder capitalism, so this survey will be essential reading for imperial and economic historians and historians of Asia alike. It stresses the neglected early years of the Company, and its intimate relationship with (and impact upon) the domestic British scene.

Book Synopsis Hybrid Knowledge in the Early East India Company World by : Anna Winterbottom
Download or read book Hybrid Knowledge in the Early East India Company World written by Anna Winterbottom and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hybrid Knowledge in the Early East India Company World presents a new interpretation of the development of the English East India Company between 1660 and 1720. The book explores the connections between scholarship, patronage, diplomacy, trade, and colonial settlement in the early modern world. Links of patronage between cosmopolitan writers and collectors and scholars associated with the Royal Society of London and the universities are investigated. Winterbottom shows how innovative works of scholarship – covering natural history, ethnography, theology, linguistics, medicine, and agriculture - were created amid multi-directional struggles for supremacy in Asia, the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic. The role of non-elite actors including slaves in transferring knowledge and skills between settlements is explored in detail.

Book Synopsis Competition and Collaboration by : David L. White
Download or read book Competition and Collaboration written by David L. White and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illustrations: 2 Maps Description: Competition and Collaboration traces the Rustum Manock family's rise to mercantile supremacy and its subsequent decline in the first half of the eighteenth century. The saga begins with Rustum Manock, who utilized his relationship with the English East India Company to increase his commercial connections and wealth, continues through his son Nowros, who became embroiled in a contest with members of the East India Company establishment, and concludes with Nowros' son, Manock, who lost the family's leading mercantile role in the face of East India Company opposition. All three generations of this Parsi family drew on connections with East India Company merchants in both their public and private capacity and on the East India Company's need to employ and Indian intermediary to secure a premier place in 18th century western India's commercial and social world. Despite constant tensions and rivalries, as long as both European and Parsi needed each other, both groups prospered. However, by the mid-eighteenth century, the East India Company's military power increased in the face of Mughal decline, with the concomitant result that the East India Company no longer needed an Indian intermediary. Consequently, the Manocks became superfluous and were forced into obscurity.
