Macaulay and English in India [#1037114]

Name: Macaulay and English in India
Author: book24h

This book traces how the English language emerged from the nineteenth century not only as an imperial and bureaucratic language but also as a global one. It highlights the role of Thomas Babington Macaulay and his "Minutes" in this journey and his lasting impact on the English language and English studies. This work recovers the contexts of those interventions and assesses their far-reaching effects in India, Great Britain, and the United States. It explores a variety of themes including the early modern quest for a universal language; the European quarrel between the Ancients and the Moderns; the young Macaulay's precocious preference for the Moderns (despite his continuing infatuation with the Ancients); and Macaulay's more mature advocacy of a modern (English) rather than a classical literary curriculum. Further, it registers the ambivalent force of English, a "second language," on the development of Indian identity and culture; and it documents Macaulay's role in shaping the contested concept of "meritocracy," in England, the United States, and India.
The volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of modern Indian history, English studies, colonialism and imperialism, and South Asian studies.
