BeDicateD EXPLANATORY FOREWORD A word of explanation seems to be demanded in regard to the make-up of this little book. The reason for writing this unpretentious volume was found in the circumstance that when we were in the homeland, twelve years ago, and gave on a number of occasions an account of our beginning at Jhansi, those who listened to the narrative were unmistakably interested in it ; but chiefly it was fovmd in the opinion expressed by valued friends of our common cause, who listened to the story, that it would be well worth w^hile to put it into print for the sake of those interested in our work who would not have an opportunity of hear- ing it, and not only for the sake of those already interested in our particular field, but of others w^hose interest might be enlisted by the perusal of it. It was not till the larger portion of the book, begin- ning with Chapter IX, had been written, that it occurred to us that as this was a book giving an account of beginnings of missionary w^ork in the heart of India, it w^ould be well to make mention of w^hat others before us had done in the way of pioneering in this same field ; and also to give a brief description of the characteristics of Bundela Land and its people. And finally, as the founding of the city of Jhansi as the capital of a new principality, and its subsequent history, culminating in the events of 1857 and 1858, were of unusual interest, it was decided to devote four additional chapters to these topics ; not the least motive for w^riting these chapters being that of showing the kind of stuff of which some of the women of India are made.

WORK BEGUN IN THE EASTERN PORTION. 1841-42. * Bundela Land is known in India as Bundelkhand, which means the portion of the Bundelas. The districts of Allahabad, Fatehpur, Cawnpore, Furrukhabad, Etah, Mainpuri and Etawah comprise that portion of the Furrukhabad Mission field which lies in the Doab, mean- ing the land of the two waters, the two waters being the two great rivers, the Ganges on the north, and the Jumna on the south. Bundelkhand has for its northern bound- ary the Jumna river, and from south-east to north- west is conterminous with that part of the Furrukhabad Mission field which lies in the Jumna- Ganges Doab. No other mission stands in such close proximity to Bundel- khand as the Furrukhabad Mission. The city of Allaha- bad is at the south-eastern end of the Doab, being at the junction of the Ganges and Jumna rivers. The city of Etawah is on the river Jumna at the distance of 206 miles north-west of Allahabad. The city of Fatehpur is situated between the two rivers, being 70 miles north- west of Allahabad. What could be more natural than that^the American Presbyterian missionaries at the stations of Allahabad, Fatehpur and Etawah should look out towards the * Pronounced Boondeyla. 2 IN THE HEART OF INDIA. unevangelized millions of Bundelkhand with a special and prayerful interest ? The city of Jhansi, which is in the geographical centre of India, is also centrally situated in Bundelkhand. The other chief cities of this territory are Gwalior* in the west, and Banda in the east. Banda is only 40 miles from Fatehpur, and only 30 miles from the Jumna river, w^hich forms the southern boundary of the Fatehpur district. Allahabad was the second place in India which the Presbyterian Church of the U. S. A. w^as led to choose as a mission station ; Ludhiana in the Punjab, or land of the five waters, having been the first station in India to be established by the pioneer representatives of that Church. The first missionaries at Ludhiana longed to cross the Sutledge and carry the Gospel to the Sikhs ; and equally eager were the first missionaries at Allaha- bad to spread the knowledge of Christ among the people on the other side of the Jumna. Accordingly we find them forming and putting into execution such plans as were then feasible for giving the Gospel to the inhab- itants of Bundelkhand. The earhest of the American Presbyterian missionaries stationed at Allahabad were the Eev. James McEwen (1836), the Rev. James Wilson and the Rev. J. H. Morrison (1838), the Rev. Joseph Warren (1839), and the Rev. Joseph Owen (1841). As early as the cold season 1841-42 the Rev. James Wilson, accompanied by the Rev. Joseph Owen, made a two months' preaching tour in the Doab and Bundelkhand. The chief part of these two months was spent in Bundelkhand, and of this portion * Gwalior, th(^gh not now considered a part of Bundelkhand, was once included in Bundela Land, the territory of the Bundela Chief, Chhatarsal, having extended as far toward the north-west at the Chumbal river. — IN THE HEART OF INDIA. 6 of their tour Mr. Wilson gave the following account: * We visited Kalpi, Hamirpur, Banda, and other large places, besides a great multitude of smaller villages on the way. At each of the larger places we stopped several days, in the smaller places generally only one day. At Kalpi and at Banda we had interesting dis- cussions with a Pandit or learned Hindu, and a Maulavi or learned Musalman. These were such as to give us pleasing evidences that Christianity is making steady and distinct advances in this country. We distributed all the books and tracts which we took with us, and two porters' loads besides, which the Rev. Mr. P. sent from Cawnpore at our request to meet us at Hamirpur." W^hether the Allahabad missionaries continued to preach the Gospel in Bundelkhand during the next eleven years, or if they did not, why they were hindered from doing so, the writer cannot tell, as complete reports of that period are not in his possession. On a tour in Bundelkhand made by Mr. Owen, accompanied by native preachers in December, 1852, the cities of Banda, Hamirpur and Kalpi were visited. In September, 1853, mention is made of a request having been received from an English gentleman at Banda for the establishment of a school at that city under a native Christian teacher. A liberal offer of aid for its support had been made, and the missionaries at Allahabad were considering who, out of their httle company of native laborers, was best qualified and could best be spared for this new station.

    Julia Franco First Year Seminar Science Fiction Tuesday 9:30-10:45/ Friday 9:30-12:15 Allegories in Time and Space1 On November 23rd 1963, the BBC launched their new TV show ​Doctor Who​. They did not anticipate the cultural phenomenon.what would grow out of their low budget show with cheesy special effects. British children were enchanted by William Hartnal’s Doctor and his companions: Ian, Barbara and Susan, and gleefully scared by the fearsome salt shakers of doom: The Daleks. The stories were anywhere from 4 to 12 parts, each around 25 minutes and were serialized weekly. But lying beneath the light hearted self resolving stories ran deeper elements reflecting attitudes towards history and current events. Deeply rooted in the series was the allegory to World War II. The Daleks take the place of the Nazis and the Time Lords therefore fill the opposing role of the Alliance. At many points, the story reads as if it is a future history of what would have happen if the Nazis had won World War II. This tapped into the subconscious fears of the nation as the war was still fresh in the minds of the parents of Britain. But also tied into the contemporary fears of the Cold War and the Soviet threat. These allegorical elements along with the characters in Doctor Who, such as the Daleks and the Time Lords, that correspond to actual historical events and people make the show what it is today: timeless and timely. The Daleks would not exist if not for one man- Terry Nation.

But the city is also steeped in history. The city of Rani Laxmibai - the brave queen who led her forces against the British in 1857 and the region around it, are dotted with monuments that go back more than 1500 years! While thousands of tourists visit Jhansi each year, many miss the layered past of the city. In fact, few who visit the famous Jhansi Fort each year, even know that it is in its historic Ganesh Mandir that Rani Laxmibai got married. Or that there is also a ‘second’ Fort hidden within the Jhansi cantonment, where the revolt of 1857 first began in the city. G L I M P S E S O F J H A N S I ’ S H I S T O R Y JHANSI THROUGH THE AGES Jhansi, the historic town and major tourist draw in Uttar Pradesh, is known today largely because of its famous 19th-century Queen, Rani Laxmibai, and the fearless role she played during the Revolt of 1857. There are also numerous monuments that dot Jhansi, remnants of the Bundelas and Marathas that ruled here from the 17th to the 19th centuries.

  • Tennyson's “Boädicea”
    Journal of Literature and Art Studies, February 2016, Vol. 6, No. 2, 121-134 doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2016.02.002 D DAVID PUBLISHING How the Red Ring Became the Bronze Horse and the Horse Became the Ring: Tennyson’s “Boädicea” Robert Keir Shepherd Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Madrid, Spain Tennyson’s poem “Boädicea”, published in 1864 but at least conceived in 1858, has never been very highly regarded. It is usually omitted from editions of the complete poetical works. There are two reasons for this. Firstly, written in an approximation of Catullan/Callimachan galliambics, it is no easy read. Secondly and more importantly, however, it sits most awkwardly within a huge body of contemporary art -paintings, sculptures, and novels as well as poems which present the (properly) Queen Regent of the Iceni as the spiritual ancestor of Victoria (the Gaelic word boudicca does, after all, men “victory”). Far from portraying Boadicea (as the name was then commonly spelt from the 18th to themed 20th centuries) as the harbinger of British imperial glory, Tennyson presents her as the half-mad victim of Roman oppression, brutalized by her own experiences into a personal vendetta. I argue that this poem is a riposte to Sir William Thornycroft’s bronze statue of Boadicea, a symbol of patriotic pride. It was begun at roughly the same time as the poem, both at the behest of Prince Albert; Tennyson would have seen Thornycroft’s models. In the poem, Tennyson envisions Boädicea reducing Colchester and Londonto a red-black stain infested with carrion eaters, and he seems to be asking whether this colour, ironically reflected in the finished statue of the Regent, chariot and horses (she used cavalry and chariots to attack Londinium, after all) is anything like a becoming tribute to Victoria.
