Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an assemblage of letters and documents from Fort St. George from the year 1697. The East India Company had been trading in the region for half a century and were in the process of consolidating their power and influence in India. The letters and documents reveal many aspects of the East India Companyâs policies, the nature of local and regional politics in India, and the precarious position that the Company often found itself in, surrounded by competing powers. The East India Company is often portrayed as a monolithic entity. However, we see in these documents a vivid array of voices. There are disagreements over strategy, concerns about expenses, and debates over protocol and etiquette that give us a full sense of a functioning society and economy. The insights in this book extend to all interested in early modern international trade, the history of colonialism, and the history of South Asia. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781528225823_0
