The opening of the Cape Route by Vasco da Gama in 1498 created a new set of conditions for dealings between Europe and India (and Asia more generally). In the decades that followed, many different Europeans - traders, military men, missionaries and others - came to India, and produced a set of images regarding the sub-continent that left a deep imprint on the European imagination. Initially, the Europeans were relatively minor actors on the fringes of India, but over time they came to occupy a situation of power, especially after about 1750. The particular strength of this book is its close examination of a number of individual agents, acting both within the European empires, and at their fringes. Though the central axis is that between Europe and India, this is equally a larger exercise in a global and connected history of the early modern world.-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Introduction: Before and beyond "orientalism" -- On the Indo-Portuguese moment -- The question of "Indian religion" -- Of co-production: the case of James Fraser, 1730-50 -- The transition to colonial knowledge -- By way of conclusion: India's Europe. 651 0 $a Europe $x Indic influences. $x Indic influences. 651 0 $a India $x European influences. $x European influences. 651 0 $a India $x History. $x History. 650 0 $a Europeans $x History. $x History. 650 0 $a Orientalism $x History. 650 7 $a Civilization $x European influences. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01352356 650 7 $a Civilization $x Indic influences. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862925 650 7 $a Europeans $x Attitudes. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00916821 650 7 $a Orientalism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01048139 650 7 $a Public opinion, European. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01354108 651 7 $a Europe. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01245064 651 7 $a India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211021435.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20170802023614.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=31A3AE2C19C611E7BD0085CCDAD10320 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
