Abstract

Abstract In recent years legal historians of South Asia have demonstrated the value of moving beyond traditional state archives and published law reports by retrieving records left in working courts. Building on this scholarship, this essay presents reflections from time spent with the unpublished historic records of the Allahabad High Court. The essay begins by examining two unpublished cases retrieved from these records. I then consider how more careful attention to the historical development of the legal record might encourage new ways of thinking through the politics of the colonial archive.
