2023Best.-Nr. BIBHB0139115492023. Hardcover. New. About The Book: The late Mogul and Pindari era in India although unpleasant to discuss can be aptly described as cruel. Despite the Hindu system's ability to preserve Brahmanical laws during centuries of turmoil the common people who interacted with animals were inevitably demoralized. As a result the general principles of mercy for the masses gave way to mere ritual observances for the privileged few. Furthermore the existing precepts of mercy have been exaggerated in reports. To ensure that it is not forgotten the book has been republished in a modern format that is easy to read. When an act was passed in 1890 to prevent cruelty to animals some people in England were surprised assuming that Orientals were inherently merciful. However those familiar with India understand that cruelty like drunkenness has long been entrenched in the culture of Eastern nations and such insinuations are unfounded. The prevailing view in cultivated Europe regarding the Eastern attitude towards animals is expressed in a sentence by Mr. Lecky who concludes that it is similar to that of all nations under heaven. About The Author: John Lockwood Kipling CIE 1837�1911 was an English art teacher illustrator and museum curator who spent most of his career in India. He was the father of the author Rudyard Kipling.
