I found a pamphlet between two fat books.
A read through left me in a reverie.
“I am Lord Macaulay. But for me India would not have a constitution, or IPC (criminal law), or IPL (cricket) and no geeks. The British would not know of chicken tikka curry and rice. The Americans would still be using the Red Indian remedies. The Africans would be without their antiretroviral drugs ………. It’s a long list.”
“An odd dream, get the booklet photocopied for a deeper look” I thought.
LM – “‘In 1841, I addressed the issue of copyright issue too”
words ~100
The pamphlet I found ~ Minute on Indian Education (1835). It was a rebuttal by one Thomas Babington Macaulay to those who believed that Indian students should continue to be educated in Sanskrit and Arabic as well as English.
Thank you Rochelle Wisoff-Fields for the prompt. Salaam.
