The limits of Orientalism : seventeenth-century representations of India

Sapra, Rahul. (Author).

Summary: "The book highlights the lacuna in postcolonial readings by providing access to selections of commonly unavailable early modern writings by Thomas Roe, Edward Terry, Henry Lord, Thomas Coryate, Alexander Hamilton, and other records of the East India Company, which makes the book vital for students of theory, European and South Asian history, and Renaissance literatures."--Publisher description, page 4 of cover
