Quotes[edit]

  • The Oriental Renaissance—though not Indic studies themselves—had only an ephemeral career in the same England to which it owed its origin. Later the debt of several writers, especially the Lake Poets, to the Hindu revelation became clear, and the shadow of its impact on London was evident in Chateaubriand when he returned from exile. But the fire in England was soon damped. Great Britain could not, or would not, be the hearth for such a renaissance. Thereafter, even in Indie Studies, the Victorians procured their best workers only by appealing to the German universities.
    • quoted from Thomas Trautmann, (2008). Aryans and British India.
