Summary
| Description |
Français : Cette carte du début de 20ème siècle montre l'Empire britannique en Inde, une structure politique complexe qui est composée de provinces directement régies par la Grande-Bretagne et d'États autochtones - ou princiers - qui ont été administrés indirectement par l'intermédiaire de souverains indiens soumis à la suzeraineté britannique. Figurent aussi sur la carte les enclaves françaises et portugaises, les États indépendants du Népal et du Bhoutan, et l'île de Ceylan (aujourd'hui le Sri Lanka), qui était sous administration britannique, mais ne faisait pas partie de l'Empire des Indes. L'Inde devient indépendante en 1947, mais fut divisée entre les États de l'Inde et du Pakistan. Ce dernier se divisa à son tour en 1971, en Pakistan et Bangladesh. La société éditrice de la carte, Dodd, Mead and Company, a été fondée à New York en 1839 par Moïse Woodruff Dodd et John S. Taylor, et était à l'origine une société éditrice de livres religieux. En 1870, lorsque le neveu de Dodd Edward S. Mead reprit l'entreprise, celle-ci devint Dodd Mead et, plus tard, Dodd, Mead, et compagnie. L'une de ses publications les plus connues est la Nouvelle Encyclopédie Internationale en 20 tomes (1903-04), dans laquelle figure également cette carte.
English: "This early-20th century map shows the British Empire in India, a complex political structure that was made up of provinces directly ruled by Britain and the Native--or Princely--States, which were ruled indirectly through Indian sovereigns subject to British suzerainty. Also shown on the map are the French and Portuguese enclaves, the independent states of Nepal and Bhutan, and the island of Ceylon (present-day Sri Lanka), which was under British rule but not part of the Indian Empire. India became independent in 1947, but was partitioned into the states of India and Pakistan. The latter in turn split, in 1971, into Pakistan and Bangladesh. The publisher of the map, Dodd, Mead, and Company, was founded in New York in 1839 by Moses Woodruff Dodd and John S. Taylor, and was originally a publisher of religious books. In 1870, when Dodd's nephew Edward S. Mead took over the firm, it became Dodd and Mead, and later Dodd, Mead, and Company. One of its best known publications was the 20-volume New International Encyclopedia (1903-04), in which this map also appeared." |
