Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the history of revolutionary conspiracies that emerged in India during the early 20th century, primarily focusing on the regions of Bombay and Bengal. The author meticulously traces the origins and evolution of these movements, shedding light on the socio-political factors that contributed to their rise. The narrative explores the complex interplay between religious revivalism, anti-colonial sentiment, and the influence of Western political thought on Indian nationalists. It examines key figures and organizations involved in these conspiracies, such as the Chapekar brothers, Vinayak Savarkar, and the Abhinav Bharat Society. Through a detailed analysis of events, including the Rand murder, the Nasik conspiracy, and the activities of the India House in London, the author reveals the strategies and motivations of the revolutionaries. The book also delves into the challenges faced by the British administration in dealing with these conspiracies and explores the legislative measures implemented to counter them. By offering a comprehensive account of this turbulent period in Indian history, the book provides valuable insights into the complexities of the struggle for independence and the enduring legacy of revolutionary ideologies.

Pamphlet. 24 p.; 18.5 cm. [First printed in 1702] [title continues] as it was deliver'd in a sermon preach'd before the University of Oxford on the 10th day of June,1702. Being the fast appointed for imploring a blessing on her Majesty and allies engag'd in the present war. Being the discourse referr'd to in the Doctor's answer to the articles of impeachment against him. The second edition. -- `If War is thus a Kind of Lottery, in which Mankind Throw at random for Their Lives and Fortunes, and so many Thousand Hazards surround one Single Prize, can any Trust be laid on a Lucky Cast, or an Adventurous Dye? How often has it been seen, that some Generals of known Abilities and Experience, of Prudence and Conduct, have been Forc'd through the Perverseness of an Ill Fortune, that has always, like an Evil Genius, Haunted and Attended Them, and Thwarted their Well-laid Policies, and Designs, to Sit down with the Shame and Confusion of a Deriding World, and to bear the Reproach of a Character, They never Deserv'd? On the Other hand, how many Rash, Inconsiderate, and Unskilful Offices, have in some Bold, Precipitate, and Unadvis'd Exploits, by the unmerited Favour of Fortune, instead of Censure and Scandal, obtain'd a Name and Credit, that was never Owing to Their Forecast or good Management? This Unaccountable Conduct in Human Affairs, which the Blind World has Miscall'd by the Name of Fortune, is the Unsearchable Guidance of an All-wise Providence, Baffling and Counter-plotting the Shallow Projections of Reason, and Over-ruling and Directing Them, not only Beyond, but beside their Own Powers, and Tendencies.' (p. 16 f.) Good ex-lib., removed, margin of title skinned. Pages toned.

First edition, containing hundreds of petitions, manifestos, declarations, and resolutions of societies, both in favour of and against the two Acts, alongside the parliamentary debates. The Acts were introduced after the stoning of King George III's carriage on his way to the state opening of parliament in 1795, and they placed significant restrictions on free assembly, speech, and protest. The Treasonable and Seditious Practices Act stated that those who "caused, imagine, invent, devise or intend death or destruction, or any bodily harm tending to death or destruction" to the monarch "shall suffer pains of death, and also lose and forfeit as in cases of high treason". The Seditious Meetings Act focused on preventing any plotting to disrupt the state. It required anyone who organized a meeting discussing political policies to get permission, and limited such gatherings to 50 participants. Several petitions and resolutions expressed loyalty to the king and a wish to protect him from harm, but complained that the acts threatened the constitution, limited the rights of subjects to assemble peacefully, and allowed charges of sedition to be levied against a wide range of publications. The long preface is a substantial essay on the nature of liberty and the complexity of the social contract. Anonymously written, it includes remarks on the American War of Independence and centres on the ambiguity of the bills, viewed as both an "infringement on the constitutional liberties of the subject" yet as "absolutely necessary by the complexities of our times" (Preface, [p. iii]). Octavo, pp. xlviii, 828. Uncut and partly unopened in the original blue boards. Worn at extremities, joints cracked but holding, contents browned, slight staining in centre: a good copy.
