  • THE BRITISH ARMY in the LOW COUNTRIES, 1793-1814 By
    ‘FAIRLY OUT-GENERALLED AND DISGRACEFULLY BEATEN’: THE BRITISH ARMY IN THE LOW COUNTRIES, 1793-1814 by ANDREW ROBERT LIMM A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY.

ABSTRACT The history of the British Army in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars is generally associated with stories of British military victory and the campaigns of the Duke of Wellington. An intrinsic aspect of the historiography is the argument that, following British defeat in the Low Countries in 1795, the Army was transformed by the military reforms of His Royal Highness, Frederick Duke of York. This thesis provides a critical appraisal of the reform process with reference to the organisation, structure, ethos and learning capabilities of the British Army and evaluates the impact of the reforms upon British military performance in the Low Countries, in the period 1793 to 1814, via a series of narrative reconstructions. This thesis directly challenges the transformation argument and provides a re-evaluation of British military competency in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars.

  • AHR Forum Ethnicity, Indigeneity, and Migration in the Advent of British Rule to Sri Lanka
    AHR Forum Ethnicity, Indigeneity, and Migration in the Advent of British Rule to Sri Lanka SUJIT SIVASUNDARAM Downloaded from THE SPATIALLY BOUNDED FORM of the small island or constellation of small islands has often been a convenient receptacle for the idea of the polity, whether precolonial, colonial, or national. At the same time, the island space has generated a rich and contradictory discourse encompassing ideas of utopia, paradise, sexuality, degen- http://ahr.oxfordjournals.org/ eration, and disease. As Greg Dening magisterially writes of the Marquesas, “Cross- ing beaches is always dramatic. From land to sea and from sea to land is a long journey and either way the voyager is left a foreigner and an outsider.”1 Yet scholars have been taken captive by the structural ease and descriptive density with which islands have been made in history, so that an island or group of islands has seemed a natural unit of analysis. Dening’s point that islands are essentially polyglot is crit- ical. In creating island states and peoples, colonists and nationalists buried the creole at University of Cambridge on May 31, 2016 and hybrid in a turn to the indigenous, endangered, and fragile. In other words, they searched after what was apparently found in the island and nowhere else. The legacy of island-making has meant that until recently, world historians spent more time with large landmasses than with small and curious places at the edges of the map that are seemingly anomalous.2 Sri Lanka is such a space, and one that has been marginalized in historical writing.

  • King Vijaya (B.C
    King Vijaya (B.C. 543-504) and his successors (Source: A SHORT HISTORY OF LANKA by Humphry William Codrington) The traditional first king of Lanka is Vijaya. His grandmother, Suppadevi, according to the legend was the daughter of the king of Vanga (Bengal) by a princess of Kalinga (Orissa). She ran away from home and in the country of Lala or Lada, the modern Gujarat, mated with a lion (sinha); hence the names of her children and ultimately that of Sinhala, the designation of Lanka and of the Sinhala. At the age of sixteen her son Sinhabahu carried off his mother and his twin sister to the haunts of men; the lion in his search for his family ravaged the country, and for the sake of the reward offered by the king of Vanga was slain by his own son. The king dying at the time, Sinhabahu was elected as his successor, but abandoned Vanga and built the city of Sinhapura in his native country Lada. His son Prince Vijaya and his boon companions committed such outrages in his father's capital that the king was compelled by popular clamour to drive them forth. They set sail and, touching at Supparaka, a famous port on the west coast of India (Sopara, north of Bombay), ultimately arrived at Tambapanni. Vijaya is made to land at Tambapanni on the very day of Buddha's death. Here they found the country inhabited by Yakkhas or demons, and one of them Kuveni, entrapped Vijaya's followers, but was compelled by the prince to release them.

    Dutch and British colonial intervention in Sri Lanka, 1780 - 1815: expansion and reform Schrikker, A.F. Citation Schrikker, A. F. (2007).

If we can identify Governor Maitland as the one who laid the foundation of the definite reorganization of the British administra- tion, his successor Robert Brownrigg should be singled out as the gover- nor who took care of the formal political unification of the island under the British flag in 1815, thereby completing the colonial project in Ceylon. A lot has been written about the fall of the Kingdom of Kandy and it is usually seen as an isolated incident that came about as a result of either British expansionist attitudes or the tyranny of the last king. However, as has been pointed earlier, the Kingdom suffered from contin- uous political tension in the late eighteenth century, and this tempted cer- tain nobles to intrigue with Van de Graaff. At the same time, the Dutch Governor thought that the acquisition of the Kandyan territories could solve his financial troubles and increase the necessary agricultural output to feed the labourers on the plantations and the soldiers in the garrisons on the coast.

  • Text Book 1.1 File
    Figure 1.1 Trincomalee Harbour Commercial Activities “From the point of view of European traders, it could be said that the importance of the island lay in the fact that it was the main source of cinnamon produced in the Eastern World” For free distribution 2 From this statement you would be able to gather an important cause which prompted the British, to consider Sri Lanka as an important country. Cinnamon was only one of the main commercial commodities which could be p rocured from this country. In addition, spices such as nutmegs, pepper, cardamom and cloves and other items such as pearls, precious stones and elephant tusks were among the main commodities which the Europeans sought from Sri Lanka. The British realized that the establishment of their power in the island would be the best means of ensuring the access to these items. Establishment of British Power in the Maritime Provinces of Sri Lanka We know that the French Revolution commenced in 1789. During the course of the revolution France which opposed the monarchies in other countries of Europe, too, invaded Holland. In the face of this invasion, Prince William V, the Stadtholder or the ruler of Holland fled to England. The British, who were anxious to gain control over Sri Lanka, used this opportunity and obtained a letter from the Dutch ruler, to be presented to the Dutch Governor in Sri Lanka. He was instructed " to allow the British to take possession of the Dutch territories in Sri Lanka in order to prevent them from falling into the hands of the French .

The Belfast papers state that Mr. Tennent, M.P., has sent over to their Natural History Society a Cameleon [sic], which he caught on Mount Calvary, and that it is still alive in the Museum. Strange how it should occur to the Honourable Member to present such a reptile to his constituents, as a memorial of their connection with him!2 Brief as it, this report intrigues on a number of levels. For the biographer, the pointed reference to the fact that it was ‘such a reptile’ as a chameleon that Emerson Tennent had presented to his constituents is telling, highlighting the fact that he was a viewed, in some quarters, as changeable and untrustworthy. More broadly, the report foregrounds the globally connected nature of the 1 Jonathan Jeffrey Wright is a postdoctoral research fellow on the Scientific Metropolis Project at Queen’s University Belfast.
