- The research for this monograph was funded by a major Leverhulme Trust project grant, and conducted in archives in India, the UK and the USA. The research and writing was completed over 7 years and the final manuscript comprises c.100,000 words. The monograph offers a new interpretation of the relationship between nature and history through an interdisciplinary study of the history of science, environmental history, anthropology and religious studies. Although based primarily on the Indian subcontinent, the monograph makes interventions in the scholarship on aboriginality, deep time and antiquarianism in South Africa and Australia as well.
