India in early modern English travel writings: protestantism, enlightenment, and toleration

Banerjee, Rita

Relating the narratives to contemporary ideas and beliefs, the author argues that the travel writers, many of them avid Protestants, seek to negativize India by constructing her in opposition to Europe, the supposed norm, by deliberately erasing affinities and indulging in the politics of disavowal.
