Download or read book Britain s Empire written by Richard Gott and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A magisterial history of resistance to the rising of the British empire As the call for a new understanding of our national history grows louder, Britain’s Empire turns the received imperial story on its head. Richard Gott recounts the long-overlooked narrative of resisters, revolutionaries and revolters who stood up to the might of the Empire. In a story of almost continuous colonialist violence, Britain’s crimes unspool from the beginning of the eighteenth century to the Indian Mutiny, spanning the globe from Ireland to Australia. Capturing events from the perspective of the colonised, Gott unearths the all-but-forgotten stories excluded from mainstream histories.

Book The Punjab  rebellion  of 1919 and how it was Suppressed

Download or read book The Punjab rebellion of 1919 and how it was Suppressed written by Pearay Mohan and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is virtually the first time that Pt. Pearay Mohan Dattatreya s classic, first published in Lahor in 1920, which was immediately proscribed and confiscated by the British rulers, is being made available. This is a complete, unbridged edition with a slightly modified title, since the original title An Imaginary Rebellion and How It was Suppressed might convey little to the reader today. The book is a virtual encyclopaedia on the Punjab under martial law in 1919, and not just about Jallianwala Bagh. The publication of this classic, eighty years after it was suppressed by the frightened colonial regime, should be warmly welcomed by all interested in the events, that proved to be a turning-point in the history of the freedom movement.

  • Publisher : Oxford University Press, USA
  • Release : 2020-10-09
  • ISBN : 019752558X
  • Pages : 412 pages

Download or read book The Coolie s Great War written by Radhika Singha and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020-10-09 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though largely invisible in histories of the First World War, over??550,000 men in the ranks of the Indian army were non-combatants. From the porters, stevedores and construction workers in the Coolie Corps to those who maintained supply lines and removed the wounded from the battlefield, Radhika Singha recovers the story of this unacknowledged service. The labor regimes built on the backs of these 'coolies' sustained the military infrastructure of empire; their deployment in interregional arenas bent to the demands of global war. Viewed as racially subordinate and subject to 'non-martial' caste designations, they fought back against their status, using the warring powers' need for manpower as leverage to challenge traditional service hierarchies and wage differentials. The Coolie's Great War views that global conflict through the lens of Indian labor, constructing a distinct geography of the war--from tribal settlements and colonial jails, beyond India's frontiers, to the battlefronts of France and Mesopotamia.

Book Imperial Violence and the Path to Independence

Download or read book Imperial Violence and the Path to Independence written by Shereen Ilahi and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-03 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the aftermath of World War I, the British Empire was hit by two different crises on opposite sides of the world--the Jallianwala Bagh, or Amritsar, Massacre in the Punjab and the Croke Park Massacre, the first 'Bloody Sunday', in Ireland. This book provides a study at the cutting edge of British imperial historiography, concentrating on British imperial violence and the concept of collective punishment. This was the 'crisis of empire' following the political and ideological watershed of World War I. The British Empire had reached its greatest geographical extent, appeared powerful, liberal, humane and broadly sympathetic to gradual progress to responsible self-government. Yet the empire was faced with existential threats to its survival with demands for decolonisation, especially in India and Ireland, growing anti-imperialism at home, virtual bankruptcy and domestic social and economic unrest. Providing an original and closely-researched analysis of imperial violence in the aftermath of World War I, this book will be essential reading for historians of empire, South Asia and Ireland.

Book The Jallianwala Bagh Massacre

Download or read book The Jallianwala Bagh Massacre written by Savita Narain and published by Lancer Publishers LLC. This book was released on 2013-10-19 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly eighty years on and fifty years after India became independent, the Jallianwalal Bagh massacre is still surrounded by controversy. It is an even which many claim as a major turning point in the history of British rule of India. The massacre was a horrific illustration of the Raj at its worst, leading many Indian politicians to the conclusion that independence was the only way forward. The Jallianwala Bagh Massacre, 1919 is an objective study of the events surrounding the massacre and its aftermath. It looks at how the massacre has been depicted by both Indian and British historian, and by writers of other nationalities. It reveal how the event has been used in arguments for and against the British colonisation of India, and colonialism in general. This study provides a unique objective insight into the massacre and the way it has been portrayed in history. The objective approach shown by the writer may be a reflection of her British Asian background. Savita Narain has lived in Britain all her life, but her family in India had a strong involvement with the independence movement. Her great-uncle, Sir Shiv Prasad, was made President of Ballia region, Uttar Pradesh, when it declared swaraj sarkar (people’s government) from the British on 20 August when the British regained control.
