‎Ancient Maya Relief Sculpture‎

‎Unpaginated with 60 plates. Quarto 11 1/4" x 11 1/4" bound in original publisher's beige wrappers with dark brown lettering to front wrapper and spine in original slipcase. Limited to 4000 copies. Rubbings by Merle Green. Foreword by Robert L Rands. First edition. Much of the finest work of the Maya artist was in low-relief sculptress and much of the best of it appears in this book particularly the exquisite work of Palenque. In many of these rubbings we can see the artists' work better than could the Maya themselves; rubbings artificially reproduce the bes effects of light and shadow. Anyone with experience in photographing Maya reliefs will recall waiting for the few minutes of ech day when the sun's position is right to bring up the relief. Sometimes the wait will last for months until the sun crosses the meridian and illuminates the north face of the monument then another long wait for the sun to recorss to cas shadows on the south face. Some of the reliefs were inside buildings and their Maya viewers never saw them with the sharpness of detail caught in Greene's rubbings. The rubbings here can aptly be compared to a family album of photographs. Here as in the family album there is no systematic effort to cover the subject; the rubbings were not made by an archaeologist to illustrate some aspect of craft. Instead choice of subjects was governed by such factors as accessibility state of preservation and depth relief. Moreover as in the case of the family album range of subjects was circumscribed. Only low relief sculpture is represented; the graceful tall shafts of Quirigua the high relief stelae of Copan the brilliant murals of Bonampak the closely allied painted pottery are all preforce absent.

‎Thoughts On the Policy of the Crown Towards India [Hardcover]‎

‎The year 1857 was a Turning Point in the History of British India. In this year the Sepoy Mutiny broke out, which, though suppressed by force by the then Government of the East India Company, riveted the attention of all educated Englishmen on India. Statesmen, Parliamentarians and people concerned with the welfare of the British nation went deep into the causes of the Mutiny and analysed its immediate and far-reaching impacts on the Military Strength and Financial resources of England. The causes of the disaster were not far to seek. The general maladministration of the Company, their annexation policy, interference with the age-old practice of succession by adoption among the Indian princes, fear of the Indian people both the Hindus and the Musalmans - that the Government, with the help of the Christian missionaries, are trying to convert the whole nation into Christianity, Discrimination of the natives from the Englishmen in Civil and military services as well as in the administration of justice, etc. became known as the causes behind the Mutiny. The future of the Indian Empire appeared to be grim to all right thinking persons in England. As a result of this retrospection and debate at home, the British Government of Queen Victoria decided to act to the right direction. Then came the Queen's Proclamation, the India Bill was passed by the British Parliament, the time-honoured administration of the East India Company swept away, the Government of India was transferred to the Crown, and a reponsible Ministry for India established. The Queen's Proclamation was welcomed both in England and in India. It promised redress to all the above mentioned grievances and to establish an impartial clean Government for the Indians. The present work, written by a contemporary British thinker, is an interpretative Study of the Queen's proclamation and the post-mutiny policy of the Crown towards India. It takes up the Proclamation, section by section, and analyses the various promises contained therein. To make the subject properly understandable, the author has described the conditions existing prior to the Mutiny and the grievances of the people on various accounts, in great details. The work is a record of the State of affirs before and after the Reforms and an interpretation of the Policies of the British Government towards India. The work has been reprinted from the 1859 Edition in view of its importance as source Material for the study of the evolution of British Raj in India.
