Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - First published in 1868, this volume contains a collection of twenty-four traditional stories from the southern Indian state of Maharashtra. Mary Eliza Isabella Frere (1845-1911) travelled to India in 1863 to stay with her father, Sir Bartle Frere, the Governor of Bombay. She became fascinated with Indian culture and transcribed these stories from her ayah (nanny and chaperone) Anna Liberata da Souza who had been told them by her grandmother. Expressive and detailed, these stories formed part of southern India's traditional oral culture, at risk of being lost. This volume includes an introduction by Sir Bartle Frere exploring the cultural background to the stories and a chapter by Anna Liberata da Souza describing her life and childhood. This volume was extremely popular, being reprinted in four editions by 1889 and encouraging the study of comparative mythology while revealing new information concerning Indian traditional culture.…

7pp., 12mo. In India Office envelope, addressed by Frere to 'The Rt. Revd. | The Lord Bishop of Winchester | 17 Devonshire Place | W.' In good condition, on lightly-aged paper. In the event that he is unable to attend the meeting ('as I have an engagt. for 3 o'clock at Marlborough House') he asks the Bishop to 'mention - if you think proper - how entirely I agree with the view taken by Mr. Jacob & that I think £2,000 to each Bishopric is the least wh. S.P.G. shd. offer.' In Frere's view 'the meeting will have the power of deciding whether efficient episcopal supervision shall be provided for those two great Provinces, the Punjab & Burmah; or whether this shall be indefinitely postponed.' He explains regarding a plan on the matter put forward twenty years before by the Bishop of Exeter: 'The great Mutiny occurred & all action was postponed for 20 yrs.' The letter proceeds with a discussion of 'the kind of Bishop Ld. Salisbury proposes', with Frere dividing his analysis into four lettered sections, with the first (and shortest) reading: '(a) the exact kind of Bishop wh. Bishops Cotton & Milman contemplated'. Frere considers 'that what is described as a Miss[onar]y. Bishop must be more or less a class Bishop or a caste Bishop'. He concludes in the hope that 'S. P. G. will be true to its own old lines of principle & action & not, in hunting after vain shadows lose the substantial advantage of the creation of two manageable sees'.…
