Book excerpt: Indian soldiers served in France from 1914 to 1918. This book is a selection of their letters. By turns poignant, funny, and almost unbearably moving, these documents vividly evoke the world of the Western Front - as seen through 'subaltern' Indian eyes. The letters also bear eloquent witness to the sepoys' often unsettling encounter with Europe, and with European culture. This book helps to map the imaginative landscape of South Asia's warrior-peasant communities.

He went to Ayres and informed him that we had endeavoured to escape, mentioning every particular of our scheme, and, as far as I can learn, telling the whole truth; but fortunately naming a different evening from the one on which our unsuccessful attempt really was made on which Ayres exclaimed, "well Pereira you have made up a very fine story, but without a word of truth, for on the very night you mention, F--was setting with me over a bottle of wine; I'll take my oath of that for it was my birth night" this was true likewise, so we were saved for that time; but as Ayres knows that escape is in our heads he will, I fear, guard us with redoubled vigilance, and so far Pereira's design has taken effect. 6th February, 1780. Mr. F--has completely detected the pious father Ricardo, and his worthy colleague the smuggler, and sorely against their will compelled them to refund his money all to about twenty three rupees, which they pretend has been disbursed. We now discovered, that although our offers might tempt their avarice and lead them to deceive us, yet they dared not persevere in assisting our escape; as the consequence of detection would to them be inevitable death. ioth February, 1780. At length I begin to cherish hopes of our speedy release, as Sudder Khan returned last night from Seringa-patnam; but is encamped without the Town, waiting for a lucky day, till when he dares not enter his own house.--So how long we may still be detained, Heaven knows--Mr. F--and our friend Isaac propose paying him a visit tomorrow. February, 1780. They went out on Friday and again to-day, but have not yet been able to obtain an audience; and thus we may perhaps be led on a fortnight longer, ...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From India AT the meeting of the American Oriental Society in 1903, both Professor Bloomfield and Professor Lanman, in speaking of my husband's life and work, said that his letters from India deserved to be published. When the report of this meeting came to me and I read the sug gestion relating to the Indian correspondence, a half formed plan which had been in my mind for some time took definite shape, and in the absence of a fitter person to undertake the work, I set myself the task of editing the letters. From the first I have had the help and encouragement of Mr. Stratton's friends. When I remember how freely this help has been given, I wonder that the book is not better - better in every arrangement and detail but one point Ihave kept in mind, and in that I think I have not failed. I have wished that the reader may gain through the letters themselves, with the least possible obstruction by me, not only Mr. Stratton's pictures of Indian life, but a clear impression of his own personality. He liked to enter into little details, so that the letters as they stand have in most cases told their story.

Download or read book The World of India s First Archaeologist written by Upinder Singh and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2021-07 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alexander Cunningham, India's first professional archaeologist, became the first Director General of the Archaeological Survey of India in 1871. This volume contains a collection of 193 letters he wrote between 1871 and 1888 to his Archaeological Assistant, J. D. M. Beglar. The letters, published here for the first time, edited and with an introduction by Upinder Singh, offer exciting, new insights into Cunningham's life and career, telling the story of the birth of Indian archaeology and some of its greatest discoveries in real time, in Cunningham's own words. The letters provide a unique perspective on the construction of Indian history in the nineteenth century. They reveal the evolution of Cunningham's ideas and methods, his interventions in debates on conservation and restoration, and his interactions with textual scholars in India and Europe. They throw light on the place of archaeology in the politics of colonial India, the role of the princely states, and the growing rivalry between Indians and Europeans over the right to interpret India's past. They also show the friendship between Cunningham and Beglar, based on a shared passion for archaeology. In doing all this, these letters bring alive the history of Indian archaeology in its crucial, formative phase.
Download or read book Women Writing and Travel in the Eighteenth Century written by Katrina O'Loughlin and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-06-14 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eighteenth century witnessed the publication of an unprecedented number of voyages and travels, genuine and fictional. Within a genre distinguished by its diversity, curiosity, and experimental impulses, Katrina O'Loughlin investigates not just how women in the eighteenth century experienced travel, but also how travel writing facilitated their participation in literary and political culture. She canvases a range of accounts by intrepid women, including Lady Mary Wortley Montagu's Turkish Embassy Letters, Lady Craven's Journey through the Crimea to Constantinople, Eliza Justice's A Voyage to Russia, and Anna Maria Falconbridge's Narrative of Two Voyages to the River Sierra Leone. Moving from Ottoman courts to theatres of war, O'Loughlin shows how gender frames access to people and spaces outside Enlightenment and Romantic Britain, and how travel provides women with a powerful cultural form for re-imagining their place in the world.
