A propos de cet article

Language: English. About the Book:-The author has portrayed that for three centuries the Sinhalese had struggled to maintain their independent existence in the face of Western aggression, and the story of their efforts, diminishing pitifully in effectiveness with the dwindling supplies of men and material, has been set out in previous books – Ceylon, the Portuguese era, and the Ceylon and the Hollanders. When in 1796 the British appeared on the stage they had to deal with a Kingdom crippled in size, negligible as a military power, and cut off from all access to the sea—with the Ruler, to use Ehelepola’s description, ‘living as fish encompassed by a net. Nineteen brief years had yet to elapse before the Kingship which had lasted for twenty-four hundred years came to an end with the capture of Sri Vikrama Raja Sinha, and this book sets out the true history of that period, stripped of the various cloaks which an active political propaganda, an apathy towards elucidation of fact, and an all too human weakness to accept without reserve anything that savours of sensationalism, have cast over it. The book is the product of extensive study of the capitulation of Sinhala rulers. The subject is delicate and interesting for general readers. About the Author:-Sir Paul Edward Pieris was a Ceylonese civil servant and historian. He served as Ceylon's Trade Commissioner and a District Judge and held multiple appointments as President of the Royal Asiatic Society of Sri Lanka. Although his academic and early career was in the legal field, he is best known for being one of the country's foremost experts on the history of European occupation of Sri Lanka. He carried out extensive historical research in Ceylon and he was several times elected the President of the Royal Asiatic Society of Ceylon having last held the role from 1932 to 1934.
