Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The English Factories in India, 1622-1623: A Calendar of Documents in the India Office and British Museum The present instalment contains all the letters emanating from the Indian factories during the years 1622 and 1623 that could be found either in the India Office or the MSS Department of the British Museum. The Public Record Office contains nothing of the kind for this period. The documents here calendared number 376, of which 65 are from the British Museum (Egerton MSS. 2086 and 2123) and 311 from the India Office Records. Of the latter, 31 (i.e. those belonging to the O.C. or ´Original Correspondence´ series) were included by the late Mr. W. Noel Sainsbury in his Calendar of State Papers, East Indies 1622-24, published by the Public Record Office in 1878 These have now been calendared afresh, at somewhat greater length. The rest are entirely new. The unusual abundance of extant documents for these two years is fortunate, as they happened to be years of considerable importance in the history of the English settlements in the East. To this period belong the capture of Ormus from the Portuguese, the Anglo-Dutch blockade of Goa, the temporary abandonment of the English factories in Northern India, the rupture with the Mogul authorities at Surat, followed by the conclusion of a fresh agreement (an incident hitherto unnoticed by historians), and, on the East coast, the dissolution of partnership between the Dutch and English at Pulicat.
