Book Summary
In The Raja's Magic Clothes, Joanne Punzo Waghorne places before our eyes
British imperialism and a small South India kingdom in the actual settings in
which they performed their interplay—not only in the Indian world but also in
the world of English courtiers, diplomats, and scholars. The Raja's Magic
Clothes explores the refashioning of the rituals of kingship in Pudukkottai
during the crucial period from 1858 to 1947. Waghorne discusses these changes in
the context of a profound but undeclared reciprocity that occurred between
British overlord and Indian prince, between British bureaucrat and Hindu pandit,
and between British scholar and British civil servant in creating the grand
ceremonial
