- Indian Arrivals 1870-1915: Networks of British Empire explores the complicated landscape of intercultural contact between Indians and Britons on British soil at the height of empire, as reflected in a range of literary writing including poetry and life-writing. The book’s four decade-based case studies lead from the opening of the Suez Canal to the early years of the First World War. Through close readings of a range of key Indian figures including Toru Dutt, Sarojini Naidu and Rabindranath Tagore, and their British friends, such as Yeats and Binyon, it elucidates the central place of India in the British metropolitan imagination.
