Descriere magazin:
Description This novel is a designedly political document. Written at the time of the Hastings impeachment and set in the period of Hastings\'s Orientalist government,
Hartly House,
Calcutta (1789) represents a dramatic delineation of the Anglo-Indian encounter. The novel constitutes a significant intervention in the contemporary debate concerning the nature of Hastings\'s rule of India by demonstrating that it was characterised by an atmosphere of intellectual sympathy and racial tolerance. Within a few decades the Evangelical and Anglicising lobbies frequently condemned Brahmans as devious beneficiaries of a parasitic priestcraft, but
Phebe Gibbes\'s portrayal of Sophia\'s Brahman and the religion he espouses represent a perception of India dignified by a sympathetic and tolerant attempt to dispel prejudice. About the author
