Download or read book Service and Adventure written by R.H.W. Dunlop and published by . This book was released on 2005-09-01 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meerut was the garrison town near Delhi in central India where the great mutiny broke out in 1857, after the disciplining of some sepoys for refusing to bite rifle cartridges rumoured to have been greased with unclean animal fats. Dunlop was an Anglo-Indian Magistrate serving in Meerut when the mutiny broke out. His account, based on diaries and letters he wrote at the time, vividly describes the mood on the eve of the mutiny - particularly the mysterious appearence of chapatis - the dried flour wafers that were allegedly a sign of the impending outbreak. Dunlop describes the first outbreak of mutiny at Meeruit on May 10th and lists those soldiers and civilians murdered by the mutineers. Subsequent chapters describe him joining the Khakee Ressalah or Meerut Volunteer Horse, and its subsequent service, incuding the defeat and death of the rebel leader Sah Mull. Often cited by historians of the Mutiny, Dunlop s account, at once vivid and thoughtful, represents the reactions of an intelligent Anglo-Indian who sees faults and qualities on both sides. HIs book includes a useful appendix listing all those units of the East Indian army which mutinied.
Download or read book The Great Fear of 1857 written by Kim A. Wagner and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2010 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Indian Uprising of 1857 had a profound impact on the colonial psyche, and its spectre haunted the British until the very last days of the Raj. For the past 150 years most aspects of the Uprising have been subjected to intense scrutiny by historians, yet the nature of the outbreak itself remains obscure. What was the extent of the conspiracies and plotting? How could rumours of contaminated ammunition spark a mutiny when not a single greased cartridge was ever distributed to the sepoys? Based on a careful, even-handed reassessment of the primary sources, The Great Fear of 1857 explores the existence of conspiracies during the early months of that year and presents a compelling and detailed narrative of the panics and rumours which moved Indians to take up arms. With its fresh and unsentimental approach, this book offers a radically new interpretation of one of the most controversial events in the history of British India.

Download or read book Hobson Jobson written by Henry Yule and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-06-13 with total page 1560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A glossary of colloquial Anglo-Indian words and phrases, and of kindred terms, etymological, historical, geographical and discursive.' Hobson-Jobson is a unique work of maverick scholarship. Compiled in 1886 by two India enthusiasts, it documents the words and phrases that entered English from Arabic, Persian, Indian, and Chinese sources - and vice versa. Described by Salman Rushdie as 'the legendary dictionary of British India' it shows how words of Indian origin were absorbed into the English language and records not only the vocabulary but the culture of the Raj. Illustrative quotations from a wide range of travel texts, histories, memoirs, and novels create a canon of English writing about India. The definitions frequently slip into anecdote, reminiscence, and digression, and they offer intriguing insights into Victorian attitudes to India and its people and customs. With its delight in language, etymology, and puns, Hobson-Jobson has fascinated generations of writers from Rudyard Kipling to Tom Stoppard and Amitav Ghosh. This selected edition retains the range and idiosyncrasy of the original, and includes fascinating information on the glossary's creation and its significance for the English language. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
