Description
About The Book: Elements of Hindu Law: Referable to British Judicature in India (Vol. 1 & 2) by Thomas Strange is a foundational legal text that interprets Hindu law for application within British colonial courts. As a former Chief Justice in India, Strange aimed to bridge traditional Hindu legal principles with British legal frameworks. The volumes cover personal laws related to marriage, inheritance, and property, offering detailed analysis based on Sanskrit texts and customary practices. Strange’s work was instrumental in shaping colonial legal understanding and administration of Hindu jurisprudence under British rule, emphasizing respect for indigenous traditions within a foreign legal system.
