Explore the fascinating ways English writing shaped perceptions of colonial India from 1600-1920. This seminal work delves into how British authors employed aesthetic strategies – the marvellous, sublime, and picturesque – to narrate and control representations of India’s landscape and culture. Tracing shifts from exploration accounts to exotic ‘shikar’ memoirs, it reveals the power of aesthetic discourse. A must-read for scholars of Indian history, literature, and cultural studies, this book offers critical insights into India’s colonial literary past and British representation.
