| In Translation of the Letters of a Hindoo Rajah, Elizabeth Hamilton engages directly with the major issues of her day, from colonialism and the â New Philosophyâ to the present state of literature and female education. Satirizing British society and incorporating material from a wide range of the orientalistsâ new translations of Indian writing, Hamiltonâ s book is a key document in the debates which raged in England over the British role in India. It remains one of the most interesting political novels of the 18th century. |
