Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English. About the Book:-The studious reader of Mr. Arnold's verse will have added richly to his store of Oriental knowledge infused in every page of this delightful volume. No other English poet has ever thrown his genius and his art so thoroughly into the work of translating Eastern ideas as Mr. Arnold has done in his splendid paraphrases of language contained in these mighty epics. The poem abounds with imagery of Eastern luxuriousness and sensuousness; the air seems laden with the spicy odours of the tropics, and the verse has a richness and a melody sufficient to captivate the senses of the dullest. This book is an over-view of the various branches of languages spoken in the east. The book covers 1) The Aryan Family, 2) Dravidian Family, 3) Kolarian Family, 4) Tibeto-Burman Family, 5) Khasi Family, 6) Tai Family, 7) Mon-Anam Family, and 7) the Malayan Family. The book accompanied by Two Language-Maps to make it more interesting. The book was first published in 2000. About the Author:-Robert Needham Cust (1821 1909) was a British administrator and judge in colonial India apart from being an Anglican evangelist and linguist. He was part of the Orientalism movement and active within the British and Foreign Bible Society. He was a prolific writer and wrote on a range of subjects. He was educated at Eton College, Trinity College, Cambridge, Haileybury (184042) and the College of Fort William, Calcutta, graduating from the last-named institution in 1844. He then worked in the Bengal Civil Services for the East India Company, in Hoshiarpur and Ambala (assistant to the magistrate), in India.After retiring to England Cust devoted himself to scientific research, philanthropy, and magisterial and municipal duties, declining reappointments in India. He was a member and officer in many scientific, philanthropic, and religious societies and a prolific writer. He was one of the few Victorian intellectuals to oppose the racist theories popular at the time. Along with John Bradford Whiting, Cust was against the abandonment of Henry Venn's policy of developing indigenous leadership in Africa.

Interiors very good, lightly tanned with some spotting, and inscription to final page. Suakin, a key trade and Hajj port on the Sudanese Red Sea coast, was at this time a strategic location in the Mahdist War. Dated 15 October 1887 to Moore's Introduction, this coincides with military operations in the region, with Suakin itself coming under Mahdist attack on 20 December. Watson (1844-1916) had served under Gordon in Sudan during 1874-5, and participated in the survey of the White Nile. He performed special intelligence duties in the Anglo-Egyptian War (1882), then appointed as Governor General of the Red Sea Littoral while much of Sudan was under Dervish control. He handed over to Kitchener in 1886, who was based at Suakin during 1886-8. Wilson compiled this work from R.N. Cust's vocabulary, with Khalifah Safwah and Khalifah Abdullah assisting on the Beni-Amer, and Idris Effendi on the Hadendoa, the latter a Madhi supporting nomadic sub-division of the Beja. The whole was revised by Marcopoli Bey. The vocabulary is presented in 7 columns (one for English, and 2 each for Arabic, Hadendowa and Beni-Amer in Latin and original scripts), and includes some short phrases. Scarce. (Ref.

She was the oldest daughter of Robert Needham Cust and his wife Maria Hobart, and was born at Langdown House, Hampshire, the Hobart family home from 1849. Two months later her barrister father set off for British India, then torn by rebellion, where he would make a reputation as a colonial administrator and linguist. She had two sisters and two brothers; her mother died in 1864 a week after giving birth to a daughter. Her father returned from India; when back there in a senior administrative position, he took another wife, Emma Carlyon, who died in childbirth in 1867. He left India, and married again in 1868. Wherry's relationship with her father was intense, difficult and marred by grudges held. There was a serious break after her marriage. In 1881, Wherry married the surgeon George Edward Wherry. Wherry also trained as a nurse at Leicester Infirmary. During World War I, Wherry was stationed in Paris in the Women's Emergency Canteen at the Gare du Nord where she supported Allied forces from 1915 to 1918. Wherry is buried in St John the Baptist Churchyard. Her collected correspondence is archived by the University of Florida. --Wikipedia ; poem excerpt from "prince Lucifer", by Alfred Austin, then Poet Laureate; includes the poems "In the Golden Age" and "The Apotheosis of Beauty" by Percy Bysshe Shelley, and a selection from the poem, "Medea in Athens", by Augusta Davies Webster; excerpt from the poem, "The Earthly Paradise" by William Morris ; "The Twilight of the Gods - The Dead Pan" by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, selections of poems by Matthew Arnold, Christina Rossetti, Peake, Shirley, Fletcher, Keats, Milton, Robert Browning, William Shakespeare, Thomas Haywood, Rowley, Longfellow, R.
