Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique study contributes to three important research fields: the history of commodities, the his-tory of the colonial developmental state, and the agrarian history of South Asia. First, it demonstrates the dynamism of cash-crop production systems and how these systems influenced each other. Second, it explores how colonial state policy came to stimulate research-based agronomic interventions, often with unintended consequences. And finally, it shows how cash cropping entangled South Asians and Europeans in new forms of struggle and cooperation. This meticulous and illuminating study deserves a wide readership. Willem van Schendel, professor of Modern Asian History at the University of Amsterdam.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the Cultivation and Manufacture of Indigo in Bengal, 1899 In presenting my first Annual Report, I regret the delay which has occurred, but the work involved in the analyses and experiments has been much greater than I had anticipated. Even now the report is not so complete as I should like it to have been. As will be expected the report deals chiefly with my visit to India, the results of experiments made in Behar, and of analyses of indigo, soils, plants, &c., made in England since my return. I have analysed a great many samples taken at various times during my stay in Behar, but, unfortunately, on account of the heavy rains and floods in September these samples were not as representative as they might have been. Nevertheless, the work has been full of interest, and a considerable amount of valuable information has been gained. I fully believe that the cost of production of indigo in Behar can be materially reduced, and also that the quality in numerous cases may be greatly improved. I left London on the 25th May, 1898, and reached Mozufferpore on the 20th June. As stated in my first Indian Report to the Behar Planters' Association of the 14th July, I spent the first two or three weeks visiting various indigo factories (chiefly in the Champarun district), and thus gained a general knowledge of the present mode of manufacturing indigo. During this period a chemical laboratory was being erected in the compound of the Planters' Club, Mozufferpore, but it was about the end of July before everything was in working order. Some of the apparatus and chemicals did not arrive until later. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Indigo Plantations and Science in Colonial India written by Prakash Kumar and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-08-27 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prakash Kumar documents the history of agricultural indigo, exploring the effects of nineteenth-century globalisation on this colonial industry. Charting the indigo culture from the early modern period to the twentieth century, Kumar discusses how knowledge of indigo culture thrived among peasant traditions on the Indian subcontinent in the early modern period and was then developed by Caribbean planters and French naturalists who codified this knowledge into widely disseminated texts. European planters who settled in Bengal with the establishment of British rule in the late eighteenth century drew on this information. From the nineteenth century, indigo culture became more modern, science-based and expert driven, and with the advent of a cheaper, purer synthetic indigo in 1897, indigo science crossed paths with the colonial state's effort to develop a science for agricultural development. Only at the end of the First World War, when the industrial use of synthetic indigo for textile dyeing and printing became almost universal, did the indigo industry's optimism fade away.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this essay collection is to recover color's complex and sometimes morally troubling past. By emphasising color's materiality, and how it was produced, exchanged and used, contributors draw attention to the disjuncture between the beauty of color and the blood, sweat, and tears that went into its production, circulation and application as well as to the complicated and varied social meanings attached to color within specific historical and social contexts.
