The constitution given by Lord Cornwallis had a paradox.Warren Hastings had been the governor general of Bengal but towards the end due to financial instability he was replaced by Lord Cornwallis.Lord Cornwallis planned to give a constitution which would protect the personal property of the individual and thus help in the prosperity of the state.But Lord Cornwallis removed the office thinking that the post had deep rooted immersion in the historical continuities of a particular society made them easily corrupt and there were chances of them defrauding the Company with the landlords.But the assistance of the pandits and maulvis was now looked at with mistrust and thus, Hastings selected 11 pandits to codify laws which would then be follow...

(“Lord Macaulay”, 2) .The Life and Letters of Lord Macaulay.“Parliament adjourned over Christmas, and on the 1st of March, 1831, Lord John Russell introduced the Reform Bill amidst breathless silence, which was at length broken by peals of contemptuous laughter from the Opposition benches as he read the list of the hundred and ten boroughs which were condemned to partial or entire disfranchisement.” (Trevelyan, 162) .“It was the time of the Tory dominance and the Whigs’ identification with the middle classes[…] Macaulay voiced the opinion of his generation and […] it was because of his pen the Whigs got recognition.” (“Lord Macaulay”, 2) .A prime minister in the early 1800s, Lord Grenville, said, “I wish I were as sure about anythi...

He was given more control over policies in India than warren Hastings.When Hastings left India in 1823 Britain had taken over the other indigenous states, and the whole of India was under British rule.Lord Charles Cornwallis was appointed governor general and commander in chief in 1786.They also caused the stoppage of the monopoly of the east India Company except for commerce in the China Sea, and put marquess of Hastings as governor general.com/India:+history+1526-1858 .

The researcher feels that the first attempt to understand the personal laws of Hindus and Muslims was made by none other than warren Hastings.This policy of warren Hastings holds good even to this day.These translations were carried on by warren Hastings under his immediate patronage and continued to exist only because of his constant and continuous support.Of all the provisions made by warren Hastings for the administration of justice in Bengal, Bihar and Orissa, the most enduring, and most significant was that which prescribed the Hindu law to the Hindus and Muslim law to the Muslims, for certain heads of litigation.This was done by warren Hastings.

In the year 1844, Lord Hardinge made the decision to employ English-educated Indians in government positions.Appointment was under the direction of Lord Chelmsford.In the words of Thomas Macaulay, “We must do our best to form a class who may be interpreters between us and the millions whom we govern, a class of persons Indian in blood and colour, but English in taste, in opinions, words and intellect” (as cited in Jayapalan 2007, 32).Little by little, Indians and Muslims became pacified although hostility against British did not end entirely.Lord Curzon called for a Universities Commission in 1902 under the leadership of Thomas Raleigh, a law member of the Executive Council of the Viceroy.

In Act Three, Scene Two, Lord Hastings is approached by a messenger or Lord Stanley, who has been sent to warn Hastings of a dream in which a boar (Richard) had razed off his helm (147) or, cut off his head.Lord Hastings now sees Richard for what he is, and asks that Queen Margarets curse on him comes true as well.Act Three also shows a lot of this type of irony with Lord Hastings as well.Of course, there are no spells cast on Richard, this is his way of turning people against Lord Hastings and ordering that he be taken away and beheaded.In Richard III, verbal irony is quite abundant in Act Three with Lord Hastings.

The research paper tries to incorporate the needs and the benefits of community service in India.The Indian Penal Code was the enacted in 1860 by virtue of the classic legal draftsmanship of Lord Macaulay... Macaulay may have not envisaged the need of community service as it was not prevalent at that time.It would be done by scrutinizing the reports of the law commissions, judicial pronouncements and the lapsed bills which urged such a reform.Then authors would suggest concluding the problems in the inclusion and implementation of community service in India and how to overcome these difficulties so that IPC meets the social needs and critics find one issue sorted in criticizing the IPC and its efficacy.

As noted above, men of the Bengal Army had been exempted from overseas service.Since the sepoys from Bengal – many of whom had fought against the Company in the Battles of Plassey and Buxar – were now suspect in British eyes, Hastings recruited farther west from the high-caste rural Rajputs and Brahmins of Awadh and Bihar, a practice that continued for the next 75 years.Specifically they were enlisted only for service in territories to which they could march.This, as well as the increasing number of European officers in the battalions,[16] made promotion a slow progress, and many Indian officers did not reach commissioned rank until they were too old to be effective.As a result the burden of providing contingents for active service in Bu...

This is dramatic irony because what Hastings says is the complete opposite to Richards intentions for him, Hastings thinks if he would flee, Richard would kill him but infact Richard lures him and then kills him.I personally belive Hastings wasn’t as stupid as he seemed to be when it came to knowing Richard, I belive he was in denial that Richards intentions for him were death, I am sure Hastings wanted to belive that this wasn’t true and that is why whenever a sign showed for him he dismissed it quickly without a second thought, so if this was true Hastings may be an energetic character, but in a completely opposite way.That was the first sign for Hastings, and because he is so predictable himself he seems to think that everyone else is...

As she woke up and saw him lying dead beside her, she took his dagger and drove it through herself.Romeo, Juliet, and Lord Capulet all determine their fates by their actions, which result directly from the flaws of their own natures.Unaware that Juliet was already married to the son of his enemy, Lord Capule arranged for her to get married to Paris.The concept of haste is a key element in the successful conclusion of a tragic play, since it emphasizes the playwright’s belief that the characters choices affected their destinies.Originally, she was to wed Paris on that Thursday, but seeing how happy Juliet was about the wedding, Lord Capulet decided to, “Send for the County, go tell him of this.

Another instance where death is foreshadowed is at the end of the extract when Hastings says that England will experience “fearful’st time to thee/That ever wretched age hath looked upon” and that his executioners Lovell and Ratcliffe “shortly shall be dead”.As a result, the stage directions in response to Richard’s ending line is “Exeunt [all but] LOVELLE and RATCLIFFE, with the LORD HASTINGS”, showing us that the rest do fear Richard, his power, and that they understand the danger of losing their lives.After which, he says, “The rest that love me, rise and follow me” almost as if he were threatening those who stay behind with the same ending as what he had just caused for Hastings.For example, when Hastings says “The tender love I bear...

This Robert would be the founder of the family branch of the Bruce, belonging to the Anglo-Norman baronnage, established in England but especially in Scotland and as far as Ireland after the Norman conquest of England.But these lists, written centuries after the event, have since been largely discredited.The existence of this Robert has been confirmed by 19th century historians who relied on lists of combatants at Hastings, such as Leland's († 1552).His ancestors are said to be of Scandinavian origin, more precisely Norwegian.After Hastings and the conquest of northern England, he would have received land in Yorkshire.

Holmes is more so an evaluator whereas Macaulay is a credible linguistic professor, but this is not what makes Macaulay’s essay more effective than Holmes’s.Macaulay sufficiently argues against Jespersen in by bringing forth a list on diction choice chosen by both genders (Macaulay, 309).Macaulay just taught his section better than Holmes did.Macaulay did what he intended to do so that is why I believe that it was Macaulay who most convincingly brought forth the more effective argument overall.An excellent example I could grab from the article would be from page 309 where he gives us two charts of how women would say something and how men would state the same idea in a different way (Macaulay 309).

Once again, the author claims that “No doubt the novelists intended to be realistic in describing two very different styles of speech, but in doing so, they also reinforce the stereotypes of men and women.” (Macaulay, 309) Different authors have fooled people into believing that these stereotypes are true and people have come to believe it.Considering this matter, Macaulay puts in another point which clarifies the actual difference between men and women in the English language- social environments.In “Sex Differences,” Macaulay addresses the notion that differences in the manner and frequency in which men and women talk are nonsense.Macaulay, Ronald.For instance, Macaulay states that “Both men and woman will use the forms if language, re...

In his conversations with both Clarence and Hastings, Richard slanders Queen Elizabeth and her relatives, blaming them for all of the ills that have befallen both Clarence and Hastings, claiming that is was she that convinced the king to have them sent to the tower in the first place.He asks Hastings, Rivers, Dorset and Buckingham to profess their loyalty to each other and for sake of one of the last of wishes of a dying man, they pretend to do so.The shared dislike of Queen Elizabeth between Hastings and Richard kindles a friendship between them, and as the audience, we aren’t taken in by his false concern and so know that this technique Richard has used to intrigue Hastings is extremely effective, and Hastings has fallen into the trap ...

He goes straight from this loyalty to committing Lord Rivers, Lord Grey and Sir Thomas Vughan to prison.I think that he was powerful, and knew where and when to use his power.Then when Richard asks him what Queen Margaret is saying, he replies with, "Nothing that I respect, my gracious Lord" (I.iii.294).True, Lady Anne is seduced into falling for the Duke of Gloucester, but King Richard doesn't obtain the throne by seduction, he gets it through fear, and a shrewd use of power, more often called rape.Seducing would be less apt to encompass the words, "Off with their head!"

To conclude, dreams are a very important part of the play as they greatly contribute to the motif of the supernatural.Richard III was written by William Shakespeare and tells the story of how Richard wants to become king and does everything in his power to get there by assassinating members of his family to do so, for example, the Duke of Clarence, Lord Hastings, Lady Anne, Lord Rivers, the Duke of Buckingham, Henry VI, Prince Edward, Prince Edward V and Prince Richard.In addition, I feel that the play is made much simpler for the reader by the existence of these dreams as he/she can predict the outcome of particular situations by evaluating these dreams and this helps the reader understand the play better.He dreams that a boar rips off ...

The Company lost all its administrative powers; its Indian possessions, including its armed forces, were taken over by the Crown pursuant to the provisions of the Government of India Act 1858.Under this provision governor of Bengal Warren Hastings became the first Governor-General of Bengal, and had administrative powers over all of British India.The Act provided for the dissolution of the company on 1 June 1874, after a final dividend payment and the commutation or redemption of its stock.One of the consequences of the Indian Mutiny was that the British Government nationalised the Company.This was the background to the Charter Act of 1813 which, among other things: Indian Rebellion of 1857 .
