Warren Hastings

Warren Hastings

Thomas Babington Macaulay

Warren Hastings is an essay by Thomas Babington Macaulay, published in October 1841 as part of his Critical and Historical Essays, vol. III. The piece serves as a review of the Memoirs of Warren Hastings, the first Governor-General of Bengal, authored by Rev. G. R. Gleig. Macaulay, who served in India from 1834 to 1838, critiques Hastings' legacy while simultaneously admiring his role in establishing British rule in India, reflecting the complexities of colonial attitudes in the 19th century.
