Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Charles Grant: Sometime Member of Parliament for Inverness-Shire and Director of the East India Company Little need be said by way of introduction to the Life of Charles Grant. It seems surprising that no complete Biography of the greatest Director of the East India Company has yet been published, though the time during which he occupied a seat on the Direction extended over the most important epoch in the making of British India, and during the whole of that memorable period he exercised a strong and effectual influence over the counsels of the home Government of that day. My most cordial thanks are due to the family for the kind manner in which they have placed at my disposal the voluminous correspondence connected with his life. My chief difficulty has been in the abundance of material, which has necessitated very careful and laborious condensation. Miss Grant, of Hitcham Hall, the granddaughter of Charles Grant, has been most helpful in giving me all the information that she was able to impart. I am likewise much obliged to Sir Robert Grant, his grandson, for kind assistance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Charles Grant: Director of the East India Company, and Member of Parliament Charles Grant was the eldest son of a Highland gentle man, named Alexander Grant, belonging to the Urquhart branch of the clan of that name. He was born in March, 1746, at Aldourie, which is beautifully situated on the southern Shore of Loch Ness, whither his mother had gone to stay with her parents, who then resided there. Those were the days when Prince Charles Edward raised his standard in the Highlands of Scotland, and Grant's father with his followers espoused his cause. A short time before the decisive battle of Culloden, Alexander Grant, being in the neighbourhood, went to the christening of his little son, accompanied by thirty of his friends, and a very weird and picturesque scene took place on that occasion. They named him Charles after Charles Edward Stuart and, drawing their swords, they crossed and clashed them over the baby's cradle, thus enlisting him under the banner of the Prince.

Download or read book The East India Company and the Politics of Knowledge written by Joshua Ehrlich and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-07-06 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The East India Company is remembered as the world's most powerful, not to say notorious, corporation. But for many of its advocates from the 1770s to the 1850s it was also the world's most enlightened one. Joshua Ehrlich reveals that a commitment to knowledge was integral to the Company's ideology. He shows how the Company cited this commitment in defense of its increasingly fraught union of commercial and political power. He moves beyond studies of orientalism, colonial knowledge, and information with a new approach: the history of ideas of knowledge. He recovers a world of debate among the Company's officials and interlocutors, Indian and European, on the political uses of knowledge. Not only were these historical actors highly articulate on the subject but their ideas continue to resonate in the present. Knowledge was a fixture in the politics of the Company – just as it seems to be becoming a fixture in today's politics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Series: Studies in the History of Christian Missions (SHCM) In this volume, leading historians of Christianity in the non-Western world examine the relationship between missionaries and nineteenth-century European colonialism, and between indigenous converts and the colonial contexts in which they lived. Forced to operate within a political framework of European expansionism that lay outside their power to control, missionaries and early converts variously attempted to co-opt certain aspects of colonialism and to change what seemed prejudicial to gospel values. These contributors are the leading historians in their fields, and the concrete historical situations that they explore show the real complexity of missionary efforts to "convert" colonialism.
