内容説明
This volume: - Explores a fresh aspect of the imperial and colonial history of India through maps, landscape paintings, and travelogues; - Investigates the pictorial grammar that legitimized the expansive cartographic gaze of the British Empire as the dominant narrative which marginalised all other existing local ideas of space and inhabitation; - will be of immense interest to scholars and researchers of modern history, cultural geography, colonial studies, English literature, cultural studies, art, visual studies and area studies.
