The historical relationship between Scotland and India is a
relatively unexplored part of colonial history. This project seeks
to re-examine the interchange of ideas initiated in the 18th
century by the Scottish Enlightenment, and the ways in which
these ideas were reformed and shaped to fit the changing social
fabric of Scotland and India in the 19th and 20th centuries.
In this volume, the significance and influence both nations had
on the other is examined and brought to light for the first time.
With contributions from key individuals and institutions in both
Scotland and India, the range of ideas that were interchanged
between the two nations will be explored in the contexts of
culture studies, history, the social sciences and literature.
