Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For much of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the British East India Company consolidated its rule over India, evolving from a trading venture to a colonial administrative force. Yet its territorial gains far outpaced its understanding of the region and the people who lived there, and its desperate efforts to gain knowledge of the area led to the 1815 appointment of army officer Colin Mackenzie as the first Surveyor General of India. This volume carefully reconstructs the life and career of Mackenzie, showing how the massive survey of India that he undertook became one of the most spectacular and wide-ranging knowledge production initiatives in British colonial history.

Download or read book The Routledge Encyclopedia of Modern Asian Educators written by Shin'ichi Suzuki and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-06-29 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook is a unique and major resource on modern educators of Asia and their contribution to Asian educational development through the 19th and 20th centuries when modernization started in Asia. In one comprehensive volume, this handbook covers a selection of modern educators from East Asia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia – and their contributions to the development of modern education, practically and theoretically. The diversity of cultures and religion as well as the multilinguistic and ethnic context have made Asian modernization unique and complex. Educational modernization in Asia reflected this historical context in many ways and resulted in the diverse forms of learning, teaching, institutions, and administration. Modern Asian educators compiled in this handbook represent various fields of Asian society: not only educational but cultural and social fields like academia, politics, economics, religion, literature, theatre, fine arts, and civic genres including the media. Through this Handbook, readers may discover the individual modern educators, male and female, and their contributions to Asian educational modernization. All of them were committed to the cause of education for children, youth, adults and in particular women. In addition, this volume has an extraordinarily rich subject index which can be an excellent guide and introduction to information touching divergent dynamics of educational developments in modern Asia. This insightful volume is perfect for students and researchers working on history of education, comparative education and educational development, particularly for those interested in Asian contexts.

Download or read book Raffles and Religion written by Syed Muhd. Khairudin Aljunied and published by Other Press (Asia). This book was released on 2004 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first and only proconsul of Java for Britain, founder of Singapore, and the author of a two-volume encyclopaedic work on Java, Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles (1781-1826) is, in the minds of many, the most dedicated colonial administrator in the history of Southeast Asia. So much so that entire collections of writings have been devoted to him, and he has been the subject of a comprehensive bibliography. Yet, none of these works has made an extensive analysis of Raffles' discourse on the religions of a people he perceived as `Malays', which he developed throughout his 18 years of service in the region. The book attempts to fill this gap by examining in detail Raffles' discourse on the `various religions' of the Malays.
