This colonial period was a time of deep change and transformation\u2014for India and for the world. These 24 engrossing lectures offer you new perspectives on the history of European imperialism, on world economic history, on the features of British colonialism, and on the rich cultures of the Indian subcontinent. Over the course of this remarkable saga you\u2019ll explore: &#8211; how the English East India Company, a commercial trading entity, established a presence in India and took the reins of power in one of the strangest political transformations in world history; &#8211; how the monumental Mughal Empire, builders of the Taj Mahal and longstanding Muslim rulers in India, gradually came apart in the face of British conquest; &#8211; how Britain extended its rule across the subcontinent, built a huge economic machine in India, and ultimately exacted a heavy price from the Indian people; and &#8211; how India finally achieved independence in 1947, through one of humanity\u2019s most noteworthy examples of resourceful and philosophically sophisticated leadership. You\u2019ll trace the economic motives that brought the British and other Westerners to India, like how the emergence of the English as a stereotypically tea-drinking society was directly related to the Indian colonial economy. You will also take stock of the incredibly lavish lifestyles of India\u2019s maharajahs, and how the British leveraged alliances with them. And you\u2019ll grasp the fundamental moral contradiction of the Raj, the conflict between Britain\u2019s economic interests and the human needs of the empire\u2019s Indian subjects, and more. In A History of British India, you\u2019ll relive a crucial era in international relations, one with deep and lasting implications for our contemporary world.<\/span>  <br \/> Is Discontinued By Manufacturer                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    No   <br \/> MPAA rating                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    PG (Parental Guidance Suggested)   <br \/> Package Dimensions                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    7.52 x 5.35 x 0.91 inches; 13.12 ounces   <br \/> Director                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    The Great Courses   <br \/> Actors                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    Hayden J.
