Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Neilgherries: Including an Account of Their Topography, Climate, Soil and Productions; And of the Effects of the Climate on the European Constitution The object of the Author of the following pages has been, by a simple statement of facts, to attract atten tion to a circumstance of which, he has reason to be lieve, a great majority of the Indian public is not aware namely, the existence of an elevated tract of country, With a climate completely European, situated within the heart of our own dominions in Southern In dia, and accessible from almost every part of the three presidencies. In pointing out the advantages to be de rived from a judicious use of the climate of the Neil gherries, * both in the cure and prevention of Indian diseases, he has taken experience for his guide, resting nothing on theory, and enabling his readers to judge for themselves as to the justice of the conclusions he has drawn.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Observations on the Neilgherries, Including an Account of Their Topography, Climate, Soil, and Productions, and of the Effects of the Climate on the European Constitution: With Maps of the Hills and the Approaches to Them, Sketches of the Scenery, Drawings of the Principal Buildings, Tables of Routes, &C The conflicting accounts which the Editor received from persons to whom he addressed himself for informa tion, when he was projecting a visit from Madras to the Neilgherries, both in regard to the difficulties of the ap proaches to them, and in regard to the accommodation afforded to travellers, and the number Of servants and other things requisite for a temporary residence at Oota camuud, suggested to him the idea of soliciting the author of the following sheets to compile an account of the Hills, and to embody in it statements in reference to the points in question, on the accuracy of which complete reliance might be placed. That Gentleman, he was satisfied, was the person best qualified, both from long experience and from being possessed of every species of information re specting the Hills, to draw up such an account of them as would be practically useful and he feels assured that the work which, in compliance with his suggestion, has been produced, will not only prove a valuable guide to those who may resort to them in pursuit of health, but will be perused with interest by the general reader, as it conveys, in a simple and unpretend ing style, a faithful view of the climate, scenery, productions, and capabilities of a tract of country which is so luxuriant and salubrious that it may be justly said to form an Oasis amidst the arid plains of India.

Download or read book Colonial Self Fashioning in British India c 1785 1845 written by Prasannajit de Silva and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-26 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stereotypical view of the nineteenth-century British in India, which might be characterised as one of deliberate isolation and segregation from their surroundings, has recently been complemented by one evoking a high degree of integration and closer co-existence in the eighteenth century. Focusing on a period which straddles this apparent shift, this book explores a variety of ways in which British residents in India represented their lives through visual material, and reveals a more nuanced position. Consideration of these images, which have often been overlooked in the scholarly literature, opens up questions of identity facing the British population in India at this time and facing colonial societies more generally, and issues about the role of visual culture in negotiating them. It also underlines the fragile and contested nature of identity: the colonists’ self-fashioning encompassed not only expressions of difference from their Indian setting, but also what distinguished them from their compatriots back in Britain, as well as engaging with metropolitan attitudes towards, and prejudices about, them.
Download or read book The Empire of Climate written by David N. Livingstone and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-04-16 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the specter of climate has been used to explain history since antiquity Scientists, journalists, and politicians increasingly tell us that human impacts on climate constitute the single greatest threat facing our planet and may even bring about the extinction of our species. Yet behind these anxieties lies an older, much deeper fear about the power that climate exerts over us. The Empire of Climate traces the history of this idea and its pervasive influence over how we interpret world events and make sense of the human condition, from the rise and fall of ancient civilizations to the afflictions of the modern psyche. Taking readers from the time of Hippocrates to the unfolding crisis of global warming today, David Livingstone reveals how climate has been critically implicated in the politics of imperial control and race relations; been used to explain industrial development, market performance, and economic breakdown; and served as a bellwether for national character and cultural collapse. He examines how climate has been put forward as an explanation for warfare and civil conflict, and how it has been identified as a critical factor in bodily disorders and acute psychosis. A panoramic work of scholarship, The Empire of Climate maps the tangled histories of an idea that has haunted our collective imagination for centuries, shedding critical light on the notion that everything from the wealth of nations to the human mind itself is subject to climate’s imperial rule.
