Abstract

A commercial company established in 1600 to monopolize trade between England and the Far East, the East India Company grew to govern an Indian empire. Exploring the relationship between power and knowledge in European engagement with Asia, Indian Ink examines the Company at work and reveals how writing and print shaped authority on a global scale in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.Tracing the history of the Company from its first tentative trading voyages in the early seventeenth century to the foundation of an empire in Bengal in the late eighteenth century

Abstract

The geography of the book is as old as the history of the book. Yet, while the history of the book is an established research field, including important work on the production and dissemination of the book, on print culture and on reading practices and other matters of reception, there has been much less focus on geographical approaches to studying the book. Increasingly, however, work has pointed to the spatial dimensions of book history, to the transformation of texts as they are made and moved from place to place, from authors to readers and within different communities and cultures of reception. Bringing together a range of scholars from different disciplinary and theoretical perspectives, this book offers a widespread recognition of the significance of place, of the effects of movement over space and of the importance of location to the making and reception of print culture, and draws in many instances upon studies within the history of science as well as geography.
