Download or read book Glimpses of India written by John F. Riddick and published by Greenwood. This book was released on 1989-04-17 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This selected annotated listing of 580 published personal writings of Englishmen involved in India from 1583 is intended to round out the scattered bibliographical compilations on the history of British India. Included are memoirs and autobiographies, collections of personal letters, diaries and journals, and travel narratives. The term British India is used in a broad historical sense to include Afghanistan, Nepal, Tibet, and Burma during the relevant periods of British influence. With a few exceptions, the volume excludes official minutes, reports, and correspondence. Although each work provides a unique account of the British experience, a number of broad trends emerge. One of the most striking is the initial experience of parting from family and homeland and embarking on what was, before 1830, a five to seven-month sail around the Cape of Good Hope. Travel within India, on the other hand, was a high point of the British experience and thus provides the subject for much of the writings. Other topics include the violence of the British-Indian conflict, and the constant danger of death from disease, accidents, or other mishaps. Light is also cast on the role of the Western missionaries, who were active in education, translating Indian languages, and writing dictionaries. Although they effected little change in such practices as infanticide, the missionaries did reinforce the prevalent British view of the Indians as savages. The bibliography is divided by time period, beginning with the British entry into India in 1583, the rise and consolidation of British India, and the Indian mutiny (1857-1858). The subsequent sections list and annotate writings of Imperial India, the period of reform and reaction that followed (1905-1920), and India's move toward independence. It will serve as an important reference for historians of the period, and will be a useful addition to college and university libraries.

Book The Emergence of Indian Nationalism

Download or read book The Emergence of Indian Nationalism written by Anil Seal and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1968-03-02 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume Dr Seal analyses the social roots of the rather confused stirrings towards political organisations of the 1870s and 1880s which brought about the foundation of the Indian National Congress. He is concerned not only with the politicians, viceroys and civil servants but with the social structure of those parts of India where political movements were most prominent at the time. The emphasis of this work is more upon Indian politics than upon British policy: the associations in Bengal and Bombay, the genesis of the Congress and the Muslim breakaway which accentuated the political divisions in India.

Book Indian Fiction in English

    Book Details:
  • Author : Dorothy M. Spencer
  • Publisher : University of Pennsylvania Press
  • Release : 2016-11-11
  • ISBN : 151280973X
  • Pages : 100 pages

Download or read book Indian Fiction in English written by Dorothy M. Spencer and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2016-11-11 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A great deal can be learned about a given civilization through its literature. The living image of a people—acting and thinking, of themselves. and of the world as they see it—can only be apprehended by the creative productions of a nation's best minds. Thus students of Indian civilization and culture who cannot afford to overlook its literature will find in this book a way to approach the Indian spirit through the work of Indian authors. Fiction in India, particularly the novel, is a product of Western influences. As a literary form, the novel, with its emphasis on character analysis and related plot, is not native to the Indian temperament. Nevertheless, during the last fifty years, India has produced a wealth of fine fiction : novels and short stories, sketches and satires. In this book, Dorothy M. Spencer has selected and annotated some three hundred items for the ethnographical and cultural material they can be made to yield. English translations, works written directly in English, and translations from the various regional dialects have been included—on the whole a rather sweeping cross-section of Indian literary creativity. With the aid of Spencer's notes, the student can decide which of the works deal with specific attitudes and values that are of interest to him. The sociologist interested in institutions and interpersonal relations, in the beliefs and ideas regarding the Indian character held by the people themselves, the philosopher concerned with the Indian world-view, the anthropologist, and the political scientist will find an abundance of material in these pages to heighten his appreciation of Indian culture. The attitudes toward social institutions and fixed relationships, the family, the place of women as mothers and sisters, the caste-system—all the intricacies of a civilization's development can be revealed to the perceptive student. Naturally enough, fiction in India has also dealt with political and social themes. In this connection, autobiographies and propagandistic or moralistic novels are most useful. Both have been included in this bibliography, as well as historical novels, a genre which, though it has recently fallen into disfavor, is one of the most fruitful sources for an investigation of the Indian past. More than a comprehensive guide to Indian fiction and autobiography, this volume is also a fine introduction to Indian culture, suggesting and developing directions which a study of India may take. It will be helpful and important to all scholars in the humanities and social sciences who are concerned with understanding the people and way of life of an ancient land that has recently taken great strides into the modern era.

Book An Index Catalogue of Bibliographical Works  Chiefly in the English Language  Relating to India  1897

Download or read book An Index Catalogue of Bibliographical Works Chiefly in the English Language Relating to India 1897 written by Frank Campbell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Index-Catalogue of Bibliographical Works (Chiefly in the English Language) Relating to India, 1897: A Study in Bibliography As one whose mother was a Metcalfe and whose father served many years in India, it is not unnatural that the Author should take a special interest in Indian life. But any such interest would have proved of little use in the present instance, had it not fallen to my lot, amid other duties, to have to examine closely many thousands of Indian official documents for purposes of cataloguing. The following work contains a record of the titles of those Works of Reference - frequently concealed in other works which I have met with in the course of the last ten years. The results are here printed in the hepe that they may prove of service to students of Indian History, and more especially to those to whom the prosperity of India is entrusted.

Book American Indian Sovereignty and Law

Download or read book American Indian Sovereignty and Law written by Wade Davies and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2009-02-04 with total page 649 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Indian Sovereignty and Law: An Annotated Bibliography covers a wide variety of topics and includes sources dealing with federal Indian policy, federal and tribal courts, criminal justice, tribal governance, religious freedoms, economic development, and numerous sub-topics related to tribal and individual rights. While primarily focused on the years 1900 to the present, many sources are included that focus on the 19th century or earlier. The annotations included in this reference will help researchers know enough about the arguments and contents of each source to determine its usefulness. Whenever a clear central argument is made in an article or book, it is stated in the entry, unless that argument is made implicit by the title of that entry. Each annotation also provides factual information about the primary topic under discussion. In some cases, annotations list topics that compose a significant portion of an author's discussion but are not obvious from the title of the entry. American Indian Sovereignty and Law will be extremely useful in both studying Native American topics and researching current legal and political actions affecting tribal sovereignty.
