SUMMARY:Book Launch Dr Joshua Ehrlich: The East India Company and the Politics of Knowledge
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to all at 14 Stephenson Way\, NW1 2HD \nTo join online email Matty: mb@royalasiaticsociety.org \n  \nThe East India Company is remembered as the world’s most powerful\, not to say notorious\, corporation. But for many of its advocates from the 1770s to the 1850s it was also the world’s most enlightened one. Joshua Ehrlich reveals that a commitment to knowledge was integral to the Company’s ideology. He shows how the Company cited this commitment in defense of its increasingly fraught union of commercial and political power. He moves beyond studies of orientalism\, colonial knowledge\, and information with a new approach: the history of ideas of knowledge. He recovers a world of debate among the Company’s officials and interlocutors\, Indian and European\, on the political uses of knowledge. Not only were these historical actors highly articulate on the subject but their ideas continue to resonate in the present. Knowledge was a fixture in the politics of the Company – just as it seems to be becoming a fixture in today’s politics. \n  \n  \n‘This is an important book. Compellingly written\, it offers valuable insights into the connections between politics\, knowledge\, and corporate interests – connections that sit at the core of pressing contemporary debates.’ \n Kapil Raj – École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales \n  \n‘For its fresh approach\, blending the histories of knowledge and political thought; for its persuasive argument\, based on deep research in Persian and European-language sources; and for its lucid and elegant style\, Ehrlich’s wonderful book will be required reading for historians of the East India Company\, South Asia\, and the British Empire.’ \nRosane Rocher – University of Pennsylvania \n  \n‘In a work as ambitious as it is meticulous\, Joshua Ehrlich reveals the British conquest of India to have been the work not only of the ‘merchant’ and the ‘sovereign’ but also of the scholar – as much the product of advancing armies and revenue officials as of the translators\, historians\, surveyors\, libraries\, learned societies\, colleges\, gardens\, and many more that made the case for how and why to rule that expanding empire. This book offers a compelling account of how debates over scholarship and education shaped the East India Company state\, as well as a thought-provoking reflection on the ways in which the power to create and command knowledge has been central to ideologies of global corporate power\,  from the eighteenth century to today’s ‘information economy.’’ \n Philip J. Stern – Duke University

SUMMARY:The View from RAS Beijing: China\, Technology\, Community and the Future (Alan Babington-Smith and Melinda Liu)
DESCRIPTION:  \n      Coming from two people who’ve resided in China for more than two decades each\, this easily could sound like a survival guide for  living and working in Beijing.  However\, the key to why a society such as RASBJ has been able to survive — and thrive — in the challenging environment of China is a bigger story.  And it’s a story in which the RAS legacy has been a source of inspiration. \n    RASBJ was fortunate enough to triple its membership during the pandemic years. Many people have asked us how this happened.  Luck was a factor.  However\, this is also a story of harnessing new tools\, new technologies\, and new strategies.  It’s a story of trying to nurture a community of internationally minded people — during an intensely difficult period in China — by looking beyond borders. It’s a story of improving the quality and accessibility of what we offer\, by seeking both big-name contributors and also fresh talent around the globe\, and by putting their stories online.   \n    It’s a story of how a modest society in Beijing reached outward\, in space and time\, to find fresh perspectives and new ways to collaborate with like-minded partners. That outreach strengthened and enlivened our community back home. With RASBJ just ten years old this year\, it’s a story of what connects us to your prominent Society which is celebrating\, with well-justified pride\, its Bicentennial. We are honored and grateful to Alison and Gordon and others for including us in your activities. This year’s memorable Rajasthan expedition was the trip of a lifetime. It triggered massive interest among our members.  It helped strengthen our 2022 commitment towards a new initiative for the public good\, which RASBJ will launch this autumn. And it’s an example of how the RAS legacy continues to inspire.

SUMMARY:Stephen Simmons: Maymyo Days: Forgotten Lives of a Burma Hill Station
DESCRIPTION:The title of the book is Maymyo Days\, but it is really the sub title\, Forgotten Lives of a Burma Hill Station which best describes what the book is really all about – I have written about some\, as is the case with most of us ordinary\, ‘normal’ people\, who lived in the Shan Hills\, ordinary people but people who did some extraordinary things. Some turned out to be gifted\, a few were courageous\, others tragic\, whose lives I first stumbled upon around 20 years ago in Rangoon: amongst others\, Henry Morshead\, a Royal Engineer who got to within a shout of the summit of Everest with George Mallory (Morshead later murdered in Maymyo)\, Princesses Ma Lat and Yadana Nat Mai – Shan Princesses who lead risky and fascinating lives\, General Po Yay – a Karen who won an MC in Burma during the war\, ‘Elephant Bill’ of the Bombay Burma Trading Corporation\, Charlotte Wheeler Cuffe who painted orchids and rhododendron in Burma and who turned out to be  a quite superb\, ‘amateur’ artist (her art is jealously guarded by Glasnevin Botanical Gardens in Dublin). \nWhilst the book is not a current affairs book\, rather a series of mini biographies of extraordinary people I do nevertheless update on the (terrible) state of things in Burma now. \nThe talk lasts for 40 minutes and I include 32 slides. The book\, published by Narisa Chakrabongse’s River Books in Bangkok\, is heavily illustrated.

SUMMARY:David Leffman: Popular Chinese Woodblock Prints: Folk Art\, Gods and Propaganda
DESCRIPTION:Chinese woodblock prints were once made in their millions\, but now the art is dying out. Using about 40 prints from his collection\, David Leffman presents some of the different types: bright and cheerful new year prints\, fierce door guardians and talismans\, “paper horse” deity prints\, and action-packed nineteenth-century propaganda. The talk investigates the hidden meanings\, social commentary\, history and folklore behind each print\, how and where they were made\, and the challenges faced by the remaining printing centres and craftsmen.

SUMMARY:Prof. Wayne Patterson: William Nelson Lovatt in Late Qing China
DESCRIPTION:William Nelson Lovatt in Late Qing China looks at the Imperial Maritime Customs Service and the final decades of the last Chinese dynasty through the lens of a British-American who served as a Tidesurveyor at nearly a dozen treaty ports.  Rather than focusing on Inspector-General Sir Robert Hart with a top-down approach\, Lovatt’s perspective is from the bottom-up\, where there is little in the way of primary documentation\, particularly for the nineteenth century.  Lovatt arrived in China as a soldier in the British army during the Second Opium War\, but remained in China to enter the customs service\, and initially trained Chinese soldiers in three other conflicts as part of the Cooperative Policy:  the Taiping\, Nian\, and the Japanese invasion of Taiwan.  In his more than four decades he interacted with missionaries\, diplomats\, fellow customs officers\, IG Hart\, and Chinese of all stripes due to his fluency in the language.  Lovatt provides an inside look at Chinese society and the treaty port system unlike few others.  Additionally\, Lovatt may have prevented Hart’s plan to annex the Korean customs service allowing Li Hongzhang to continue to control that county indirectly.
