1938réf. 165001938. Jeffrey Mary Pauline. Dr. Ida: India The Life Story of Ida S. Scudder 1938. Signed biography of American physician and medical missionary Ida Sophia Scudder 1870-1960 who established hospitals and medical training programs for women in colonial India. Born in India to American missionary parents Scudder pursued medicine after witnessing the consequences of restrictions preventing Indian women from receiving treatment from male physicians. In 1899 she graduated from Cornell Medical College as a member of its first graduating class to include women returning to India in 1900 to establish a small clinic in Vellore. Within two years she had founded the Mary Taber Schell Memorial Hospital which developed into a major center for women's medical treatment and professional training. Her subsequent establishment of a nursing school in 1909 and the Union Mission Medical School for Women in 1918 expanded opportunities for Indian women to enter the medical profession. Jeffrey Mary Pauline. Dr. Ida: India The Life Story of Ida S. Scudder. New York: Fleming H. Revell Company 1938. Signed and inscribed by the author on the front endpaper. 212 pages with a frontispiece portrait and 18 additional illustrations throughout. Original blue cloth boards measuring 8 x 6 inches. Jeffrey recounts Scudder's upbringing in a missionary family her medical education in the United States and her return to India to establish healthcare facilities for women who faced religious and social restrictions on treatment by male physicians. The biography traces the expansion of her work from a small rural clinic into a hospital and medical training institution documenting her efforts to provide both medical care and professional education for Indian women. Published in 1938 while Scudder remained active in the administration of her medical institutions the biography records the development of women's medical education in British India before independence. Her work at Vellore addressed both the shortage of female physicians and the restrictions that prevented many Indian women from seeking treatment while establishing training opportunities for Indian women in nursing and medicine. The author's inscription distinguishes this copy and the illustrations provide additional contemporary documentation of Scudder's life and medical work. A few pages contain ink corrections or annotations. Very good condition. unknown

1807réf. 122432Calcutta: Star Press 24 January 1807. Haunting piece of Company-rule ephemera announcing the funeral of William Townsend Jones c.1757-1807 attorney on the council of the Supreme Court of Judicature at Fort William the highest court of British India from its foundation in 1774 until 1862. Jones's name is now usually connected with his indictment in December 1789 for flogging to death one Sheriut Allah the brother of his durwan gate-porter whom he suspected of stealing one of his dogs which was "an unlikely crime for a Muslim" Franklin. He was acquitted by the Supreme Court who concluded that Sheriut Allah had died by suicide by eating opium. The affair arose only two years after the impeachment of Warren Hastings in 1787 whose fall from grace had begun with a similar miscarriage of justice involving the execution of a native East India Company administrator Nandakumar. Jones is also a recurring character in the recently published diaries of Calcutta surveyor and builder Richard Blechynden 1759-1822 which reveal that he was also rumoured to have killed another of his servants his mater sweeper. The undertaker Peter Lindeman 1771-1856 of Scottish descent worked from premises at 144 Durrumtollah; from 1803 the Calcutta Missionaries held services in his house on Cossitollah Street until the completion of a new chapel at Lall Bazar in 1809 of which he became a trustee. Single sheet of laid paper 130 x 139 mm printed on one side. Mourning border motif of urn on an altar. Contemporary signature "T. R.

2008réf. 28134Cambridge University Press. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. Hardcover. Book is fine. Front DJ flap creased. 1 very tiny chip to DJ.; Latin and especially Greek texts of the imperial period contain a wealth of references to 'India'. Professor Parker offers a survey of such texts read against a wide range of other sources both archaeological and documentary. He emphasises the social processes whereby the notion of India gained its exotic features including the role of the Persian empire and of Alexander's expedition. Three kinds of social context receive special attention: the trade in luxury commodities; the political discourse of empire and its limits; and India's status as a place of special knowledge embodied in 'naked philosophers'. Roman ideas about India ranged from the specific and concrete to the wildly fantastic and the book attempts to account for such variety. It ends by considering the afterlife of such ideas into late antiquity and beyond.; Greek Culture in the Roman World; 374 pages . 2008. 0521858348 . Cambridge University Press hardcover
