Focusing specifically on the poetic construction of India, ‘Mapping the Nation’ offers a broad selection of poetry written by Indians in English during the period 1870–1920. Centering upon the “mapping” of India – both as a regional location and as a poetic ideal – this unique anthology presents poetry from various geographical nodal points of the subcontinent, as well as that written in the imperial metropole of England, to illustrate how the variety of India’s poetical imagining corresponded to the diversity of her inhabitants and geography.

Excerpt from The Scales of Justice: And Other Poems We've tasted lust, and sipped Sin's wine, Sitting on either side. Our Host was there to see us dine Our slightest want supplied. He smiled at yours; he smiled at mine To me alone he lied. Your eye is clear; your head held high; No weakness in your pace.

Excerpt from The Vision of Justice and Other Poems Where were her classic symbols? In one hand She grasped the remnant of her shivered brand; Green with disuse, corroded by the shower, Her broken scales betrayed her shattered power; These hung suspended to her zone-girt waist, That zone where Justice once was clearly traced But now so faint those golden letters shone, Like faded names upon memorial stone.
