Translation of the Letters of a Hindoo Rajah

Translation of the Letters of a Hindoo Rajah

In Translation of the Letters of a Hindoo Rajah, Elizabeth Hamilton engages directly with the major issues of her day, from colonialism and the â€œNew Philosophyâ€ to the present state of literature and female education. Satirizing British society and incorporating material from a wide range of the orientalistsâ€™ new translations of Indian writing, Hamiltonâ€™s book is a key document in the debates which raged in England over the British role in India. It remains one of the most interesting political novels of the 18th century.
