Excerpt: ... chapter xix. how sie john malcolm endeavoured to compel sayaji rav to abide by his engagements, and sequestrated A large portion op his dominions. Though Sayaji Rav and Mr. Elphinstone had come to an understanding on many important subjects, a few points had been left unsettled, on which the final decision, being unfavourable to His Highness, gave him great umbrage. Chief among these was the refusal on the part of the Bombay Government to recognise any claims of the Gaikvad for the Ghans Dana tribute in that part of Kathiavad which had belonged to the Peshva, and some similar claims in the Kheda collectorate in the districts originally formed in the Ahmadabad direction, and in the dominions of the Navab of Cambay. The origin of this tribute has been explained in Chapter xiv., and its present proceeds are given in Appendix vhi. "Want of space forbids us to dwell on this matter; but it is just worth noting that the refusal of the Navab of Cambay to accede to the demands of the Gaikvad forced the Bombay Government to allow the latter to make a military demonstration against the Navab, who was under their protection. In 1814 seventeen of the Navab's villages were seized and their revenue appropriated by the Gaikvad for four years. Three lakhs of revenue were thus confiscated, but in 1821 Mr. Elphinstone decided that the Gaikvad's c

Book The Indian Princes and their States

Download or read book The Indian Princes and their States written by Barbara N. Ramusack and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-01-08 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the princes of India have been caricatured as oriental despots and British stooges, Barbara Ramusack's study argues that the British did not create the princes. On the contrary, many were consummate politicians who exercised considerable degrees of autonomy until the disintegration of the princely states after independence. Ramusack's synthesis has a broad temporal span, tracing the evolution of the Indian kings from their pre-colonial origins to their roles as clients in the British colonial system. The book breaks ground in its integration of political and economic developments in the major princely states with the shifting relationships between the princes and the British. It represents a major contribution, both to British imperial history in its analysis of the theory and practice of indirect rule, and to modern South Asian history, as a portrait of the princes as politicians and patrons of the arts.

Book Orientalism Transposed

Download or read book Orientalism Transposed written by Julie F. Codell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-20 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1998, this volume reflects that, ever since the publication of Edward Said’s Orientalism twenty years ago, scholars have tested his thesis against the wider application of his terms to cultural practices and the rhetoric of power. The cultural impact of the British on their colonies has been extensively investigated but only recently have scholars begun to ask in what ways British culture was transformed by its contact with the colonies. The essays in this volume demonstrate how influential the Empire was on British culture from the late eighteenth to early twentieth centuries. They show how, from cross-cultural cross-dressing to Buddhism, British artists and writers appropriated unfamiliar and challenging aspects of the culture of the Empire for their own purposes. An examination is also made of the extent to which colonized people engaged in the orientalising discourse, amending and subverting it, even re-applying its stereotypes to the British themselves. Finally, two essays explore instances of the exchange of ideas between colonies. Several of the essays are based on papers given at the 1996 Conference of the College Arts Association.

Book Corruption  Empire and Colonialism in the Modern Era

Download or read book Corruption Empire and Colonialism in the Modern Era written by Ronald Kroeze and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Answering the calls made to overcome methodological nationalism, this volume is the first examination of the links between corruption and imperial rule in the modern world. It does so through a set of original studies that examine the multi-layered nature of corruption in four different empires (Great Britain, Spain, the Netherlands and France) and their possessions in Asia, the Caribbean, Latin America and Africa. It offers a key read for scholars interested in the fields of corruption, colonialism/empire and global history. The chapters ‘Introduction: Corruption, Empire and Colonialism in the Modern Era: Towards a Global Perspective’, ‘“Corrupt and rapacious”: Colonial Spanish-American past through the eyes of early nineteenth century contemporaries. A contribution from the history of emotions’, and ‘Colonial Normativity? Corruption in the Dutch-Indonesian Relationship in the Nineteenth and Early-Twentieth Centuries’ are Open Access under a CC BY 4.0 license at link.springer.com.

Book The Progressive Maharaja

Download or read book The Progressive Maharaja written by Rahul Sagar and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-08-01 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hints on the Art and Science of Government was the first treatise on statecraft produced in modern India. It consists of lectures that Raja Sir T. Madhava Rao delivered in 1881 to Sayaji Rao Gaekwad III, the young Maharaja of Baroda. Universally considered the foremost Indian statesman of the nineteenth century, Madhava Rao had served as dewan (or prime minister) in the native states of Travancore, Indore and Baroda. Under his command, Travancore and Baroda came to be seen as 'model states', whose progress demonstrated that Indians were capable of governing well. Rao's lectures summarise the fundamental principles underlying his unprecedented success. He explains how and why a Maharaja ought to marry the classical Indian ideal of raj dharma, which enjoins rulers to govern dutifully, with the modern English ideal of limited sovereignty. This makes Hints an exceptionally important text: it shows how, outside the confines of British India, Indians consciously and creatively sought to revise and adapt ideals in the interests of progress. This landmark edition contains both the newly rediscovered, original lecture manuscripts; and an authoritative introduction, outlining Rao's remarkable career, his complicated relationship with Sayaji Rao III, and the reasons why his lectures have been neglected-until now.
