Book Rulers  Townsmen and Bazaars

Download or read book Rulers Townsmen and Bazaars written by C. A. Bayly and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 1988-05-19 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Widely acclaimed when it first appeared in hard covers, Dr Bayly's authoritative study traces the evolution of North Indian towns and merchant communities from the decline of Mughal dominion to the consolidation of mature Victorian empire following the 'mutiny' of 1857. The first section of the book looks at the response of the inhabitants of the Ganges Valley to the 'Time of Troubles' in the eighteenth century. The second section shows how the incoming British, were themselves constrained to build their new empire on this resilient network of towns, rural bazaars and merchant communities; and how in turn colonial trade and administration were moulded by indigenous forms of commerce and politics. The third section focuses on the social history of the towns under early colonial rule and includes an analysis of the culture and business methods of the Indian merchant family. It is based in part on the private records and histories of the business people themselves.

  • Author : Sujit Sivasundaram
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2021-05-07
  • ISBN : 022679055X
  • Pages : 497 pages

Download or read book Waves Across the South written by Sujit Sivasundaram and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2021-05-07 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a story of tides and coastlines, winds and waves, islands and beaches. It is also a retelling of indigenous creativity, agency, and resistance in the face of unprecedented globalization and violence. Waves Across the South shifts the narrative of the Age of Revolutions and the origins of the British Empire; it foregrounds a vast southern zone that ranges from the Arabian Sea and southwest Indian Ocean across to the Bay of Bengal, and onward to the South Pacific and the Tasman Sea. As the empires of the Dutch, French, and especially the British reached across these regions, they faced a surge of revolutionary sentiment. Long-standing venerable Eurasian empires, established patterns of trade and commerce, and indigenous practice also served as a context for this transformative era. In addition to bringing long-ignored people and events to the fore, Sujit Sivasundaram opens the door to new and necessary conversations about environmental history, the consequences of historical violence, the legacies of empire, the extraction of resources, and the indigenous futures that Western imperialism cut short. The result is nothing less than a bold new way of understanding our global past, one that also helps us think afresh about our shared future.

Book The Eight Zulu Kings

    Book Details:
  • Author : John Laband
  • Publisher : Jonathan Ball Publishers
  • Release : 2018-08-17
  • ISBN : 1868428397
  • Pages : 518 pages

Download or read book The Eight Zulu Kings written by John Laband and published by Jonathan Ball Publishers. This book was released on 2018-08-17 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Eight Zulu Kings, well-respected and widely published historian John Laband examines the reigns of the eight Zulu kings from 1816 to the present. Starting with King Shaka, the renowned founder of the Zulu kingdom, he charts the lives of the kings Dingane, Mpande, Cetshwayo, Dinuzulu, Solomon and Cyprian, to today's King Goodwill Zwelithini whose role is little more than ceremonial. In the course of this investigation Laband places the Zulu monarchy in the context of African kingship and tracks and analyses the trajectory of the Zulu kings from independent and powerful pre-colonial African rulers to largely powerless traditionalist figures in post-apartheid South Africa.

Book The Inclusive Bible

    Book Details:
  • Author : Priests for Equality
  • Publisher : Government Institutes
  • Release : 2009-03-16
  • ISBN : 1580512429
  • Pages : 808 pages

Download or read book The Inclusive Bible written by Priests for Equality and published by Government Institutes. This book was released on 2009-03-16 with total page 808 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While this new Bible is certainly an inclusive-language translation, it is much more: it is a re-imagining of the scriptures and our relationship to them. Not merely replacing male pronouns, the translators have rethought what kind of language has built barriers between the text and its readers. Seeking to be faithful to the original languages, they have sought new and non-sexist ways to express the same ancient truths. The Inclusive Bible is a fresh, dynamic translation into modern English, carefully crafted to let the power and poetry of the language shine forth—particularly when read aloud—giving it an immediacy and intimacy rarely found in traditional translations of the Bible. The Inclusive Bible contains both the Old and the New Testaments.
