Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from India Under Hastings Eighteen years ago there appeared three folio volumes of Letters, Despatches, and other State Papers preserved in the Foreign Department of the Government of India, 1772-1785, printed by authority under my editing. The Introduction to these volumes is the Introduction to the State Papers submitted to revision, and so enlarged that it has a title to be regarded as a new work. In order that the student of history should rightly comprehend the nature of the government of India, and judge of its character, it is necessary first to direct his attention to the circumstances under which it arose, and to the principles on which it is founded. The close union between the history and constitution of the Indian Government and that of England must be traced and clearly understood. The Supreme Government of India is not the creation of any Indian authority, but derives its constitution and powers from many successive Acts of Parliament. It is for this reason that I have, in the; present account of Warren Hastings´ Administration, dealt at length with the Acts of Parliament relating to India passed during his tenure of office.
