An Indian Portfolio
"Emily Eden (1797-1869) was born into a prominent Whig family and grew up surrounded by an aristocratic inner circle of British social and political life. In 1835, her unmarried older brother, George, was appointed Governor-General of India. Unmarried herself, Emily was to be his consort during his six-year tenure. She travelled reluctantly, complaining bitterly and constantly about life in India. Between 1837 and 1840 Emily accompanied her brother 'up country' on a mission to forestall the perceived threat to British interests from Russia and Persia, both stealthily eyeing India and concocting plans to invade Afghanistan. This period produced a great surge in Emily's written and artistic ou...
Up the Country' Letters Written To Her Sister From The Upper Provinces Of India
"Up the Country" is a charming and witty travelogue written by way of Emily Eden, an outstanding English writer and sister of the Governor-General of India, Lord Auckland. The book chronicles her reviews and observations all through her travels via India, in particular in the northern regions of the usa throughout the 1830s. In "Up the Country," Emily Eden's storytelling style is marked by way of its humor, eager wit, and astute observations. She affords readers with a delightful and candid account of her interactions with an extensive range of humans, from colonial officials and Indian royalty to local residents and British expatriates. Through her enticing narrative, she gives a brilliant and insightful window into the social and political panorama of the time. While the book is lighthearted in its tone, it also delves into the complexities of British colonial rule in India, losing light at the challenges and absurdities of governance in a foreign land. Eden's work is not only a travelogue however a social statement that explores the interactions and cultural clashes between the British and the Indian populace.

Since the posthumous discovery of her work, general readers and literary scholars alike have puzzled over this paradox of wanting to communicate widely and yet apparently refusing to publish. In this pathbreaking study, Martha Nell Smith unravels the paradox by boldly recasting two of the oldest and still most frequently asked questions about Emily Dickinson: Why didn't she publish more poems while she was alive? and Who was her most important contemporary audience?
