200828134Cambridge University Press. 2008. Hardcover. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. Book is fine. Front DJ flap creased. 1 very tiny chip to DJ.; Latin and especially Greek texts of the imperial period contain a wealth of references to 'India'. Professor Parker offers a survey of such texts read against a wide range of other sources both archaeological and documentary. He emphasises the social processes whereby the notion of India gained its exotic features including the role of the Persian empire and of Alexander's expedition. Three kinds of social context receive special attention: the trade in luxury commodities; the political discourse of empire and its limits; and India's status as a place of special knowledge embodied in 'naked philosophers'. Roman ideas about India ranged from the specific and concrete to the wildly fantastic and the book attempts to account for such variety. It ends by considering the afterlife of such ideas into late antiquity and beyond.; Greek Culture in the Roman World; 374 pages . 0521858348 . Cambridge University Press hardcover

1884189408London: Printed by the Ballatyne Press "For Private Circulation" 1884. Duleep Singh reclaims his throne First and only edition privately issued of this controversial presentation of the maharajah's grievances against the British Government's claims to the Punjab. Decidedly uncommon around 14 copies traced institutionally just a couple at auction. An excellent copy of a fragile fugitive and highly desirable work here in a variant binding to the black skiver usually encountered. The child king Duleep Singh 1838-1893 Maharajah of Lahorewas carried into exile following defeat in the Second Anglo-Sikh War 1848-9 converting to Christianity in 1854 obtaining a royal audience and becoming "an immediate success" with the Queen and eventually settling in Elveden Suffolk with Bamba Müller his "part-Ethiopian part-German" ODNB wife who he had met in Cairo when returning from his mother's funeral in India; "Duleep Singh loved Elveden and rebuilt the church cottages and the school. His fame as a shooter of game was revived in the grounds of the great estate". However "amid European glamour the spirit that had tasted sovereignty was hibernating somewhere in the mind of Duleep Singh. Prompted initially by his mother then by his cousin Thakur Singh Sandhanwalia and finally by the supposed prophecies of the tenth Sikh guru Duleep Singh began a battle with the British government asserting the illegality of the annexation of the Punjab and demanded to be reinstated as maharajah. In 1886 he tried to return to India to place himself as the prophesied head of the Sikh people but was arrested at Aden. Here he was received back into the Sikh faith". From Paris he made himself the centre of various plots to overthrow British rule in the Punjab scheming with Russian and Irish revolutionaries to force the Khyber Pass but all of these conspiracies came to nothing. Increasingly dogged by ill health he sought a reconciliation with Victoria who "responded with a full pardon through the secretary of state on 1 August 1890". He died in Paris in 1893 and was carried back to his beloved Elveden and buried in the graveyard of St Andrew's and St Patrick's Church. The present work represents the historical groundwork to his campaign for reinstatement to the throne and was distributed solely to those who he felt could be of influence to that end. It was "compiled partly from historical sources and partly from private information and documents furnished" Preface by Duleep Singh himself and encompasses a sketch of the early history of the Punjab; a biographical narrative of the Maharajah; and an explanation "of the peculiar Relations in which the Maharajah stands towards the Government and the causes of the differences between them".

Slightly rubbed the spine sunned; endpapers a little browned pale toning to the text-block else a very good copy. hardcover
