British women travellers : empire and beyond, 1770-1870
\"This book studies the exclusive refractive perspectives of British women who took up the twin challenges of travel and writing when Britain was establishing itself as the greatest empire on earth. Contributors explore the ways in which travel writing has defined women's engagement with Empire and British identity, and was inextricably linked with the issue of identity formation. With a capacious geographical canvas, this volume examines the multifaceted relations and negotiations of British women travellers in a range of different imperial contexts across continents from America, Africa, Europe to Australia\"-- Provided by publisher.

Mapping India : transitions and transformations, 18th to 19th century
\"This book presents an alternate history of colonial India in the 18th and the 19th centuries. It traces the transitions and transformations during this period through art, literature, music, theatre, satire, textile, regime changes, personal histories, and migration. The essays in the volume examine historical events and movements which questioned the traditional parameters of identity, and forged a new direction for the people and the nation. Viewing the age though diverse disciplinary angles, the book also reflects on the various reimaginings of India at the time. This volume will be of interest to academics and researchers of modern Indian history, cultural studies, and literature. It will also appeal to scholars interested in the anthropological, sociological, and psychological contexts of imperialism\"-- Provided by publisher.
