Representations of India, 1740-1840
Author: Amal ChatterjeePublisher: Palgrave Macmillan
ISBN: 9780312211455
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
Representations of India, 1740-1840, considers how writing in that century justified and was affected by the introduction and extension of British domination of India, thus demonstrating the link between writing and the ideological, economic and political climate and debates. It proposes that initial interest in the great wealth gained in India by 'nabobs' was gradually concealed behind ideas of military, social, religious and racial superiority, thus laying the foundations for the Victorian excuse of a 'civilizing mission'. Drawing on a range of fiction and non-fiction, Chatterjee analyses examples of representations of Britons in India (traders, soldiers and administrators), Indian religion and religious practices (religion itself, and the practices of sati and thuggee), Indian society and government and rulers (with a separate study of Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan). In doing so, the author fills the gap between perceptions of the early colonial 'exotic East' and the later 'primitive subject nation'.

Book Description
George Thatcher served as a U.S. representative from Maine throughout the Federalist Era (1789-1801)--the most critical and formative period of American constitutional history. A moderate on most political issues, the Cape Cod native and Harvard-educated lawyer proved a maverick in matters relating to education, the expansion of the slave interest, the rise of Unitarianism, and the separation of church and state. Written over his forty-year career as a country lawyer, national legislator, and state supreme court justice, the over two hundred letters and miscellaneous writings selected for this edition will appeal to historians, lawyers and legal scholars, teachers, and genealogists as an encyclopedic resource on the Founding generation, and to all readers captivated by the dramatic immediacy and inherent authenticity of personal letters. Following Thatcher's journey as a New England Federalist, abolitionist, religious dissenter, and pedagogical innovator is to add depth and complexity to our understanding of the early American Republic.
