India inscribed European and British writing on India ; 1600 - 1800
No full textIndia Inscribed is the first comprehensive study of European and British writing on India in the period 1600-1800, from the foundation of the East India Company to the defeat of Tipu Sultan. Britain's transition from trading partner to colonial power is charted through a detailed analysis of an exceptionally wide range of representations of India. The book draws on many sources previously ignored by scholars: travel accounts, missionary letters, histories and parliamentary debates, as well as illustrations, novels and poetryKate Teltscher argues that writing about India is not monolithic or univocal, but that representations of India are diverse, shifting, historically contingent and frequently competitive. Using the techniques of textual analysis on non-literary as well as literary texts, she examines such issues as the contrasting representation of Muslim and Hindu women, the rhetoric of Catholic and Protestant missionaries, the construction of British authority, and the ever-present threat of Indian subversio

Hobson-Jobson:The East India Company lexicon
Full text linkHenry Yule and A.C. Burnell’s Hobson-Jobson: A Glossary of Colloquial Anglo-Indian Words and Phrases (1886) offers a richly nuanced history of the East India Company. This article argues that the lexicon shows the influence of comparative philology, particularly the work of Friedrich Max Müller. Compiled at the same time as the India Office archives were first catalogued, Hobson-Jobson engages with the primary sources of Company history. The article examines both the impact of Asian words and goods on Britain, and the cultural and trading connections between colonies. Through a series of close readings, the article demonstrates that Hobson-Jobson offers fresh ways to approach the global networks of Company trade, and personal networks of affiliation. © 2017, Wiley.
