James Mill

    6 avril 1773 – 23 juin 1836

    James Mill, historien et philosophe écossais, est connu pour son œuvre monumentale sur l'Inde britannique. Bien qu'il n'ait jamais visité le sous-continent, il fut le premier à diviser l'histoire indienne en périodes hindoue, musulmane et britannique. Son écrit, un classique de l'auto-satisfaction coloniale, dénonce avec véhémence la culture indienne tout en exaltant la mission civilisatrice britannique. Cette division tripartite de l'histoire indienne, bien que très influente, est aujourd'hui considérée comme problématique.
