@rhyskamjones @hexnhart Good find! Early for anglophone writing full stop (mentioned in Borlase but only about the pilier), and interesting etymological conjecture too.

'New Perspectives on the Life and Worlds of Sir William Jones', a forum edited by @dr_jehrlich and me, is now online at GIH. Jurisprudence, Religion, Politics, Knowledge Production, and Philology - in Britain and India - all discussed (among other things).

1/ The intro to "New Perspectives on the Life and Worlds of Sir William Jones" is now up online! As @stewbomber and I explain, the forum is the first collective reassessment of the famous orientalist since the 1990s. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

How did scholarship intersect with politics in the case of the orientalist Sir William Jones? I argue here that Jones was a consummate political operator who lacked any fixed philosophy about British rule in India. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

We have a great list of speakers lined up and intend for this colloquium to be a step towards a serious and sustained discussion of race as a subject in modern intellectual history.

@zeno_thankyou No you'll be fine. The only border I've ever been asked questions like that is the UK's.
