The History and Culture of the Indian People: Volume 9: British Paramountcy and Indian Renaissance Part I

R.C. Majumdar
4.9/5 (21688 ratings)
Description:This volume deals with the political history and economic condition of India from 1818 to 1905. It describes the nature of British rule in India for nearly a century afgter the British had become dominant political power. It is not a mere chronicle of events nor a kind of Gazetteer giving meticulous details of administration. It is a broad review of the British rule, bringing out its two main characteristics, namely the establishment of paramount authority all over India and the creation of a framework of all-India administration such as India probably never knew before. It also seeks to draw in true colour the colonial imperialism and the economic exploitation which formed the real background of British rule in India in the nineteenth century. IN these respects this volume breaks an altogether new ground, as will be evident from a comparison with V.A. Smith's Oxford History of India or the Cambridge History of India, volumes V and VI, which are now regarded as standard authorities on the subject. These two books were written mainly with a view to defend British Imperialim in India and look at India purely from the standpoint of British officials and statemen. The comprehensive Cambridge History of India is the last great historical work on India written by Englishmen. Difference in spirit even from the old English historians of British India, it has put forth only the official or imperial view of British transactions in India, without any attempt to discuss the dissentient views. It suppresses truth in many cases where the preservation of good name for the British rulers requires it; worse still, it repeats theofficial calumny against Indian rulers concocted by the British Government of the day in order to justify their unjust action against them, though a little inquiry would have sufficed, to demonstrate the totally unreliable character of the evidence on which the statements of the Government of India were based.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
