Course Introduction: The Revolt of 1857

Welcome to the course on The Revolt of 1857, one of the most significant uprisings in Indian history and a turning point in the struggle against British colonial rule. Often referred to as India's First War of Independence, this course will explore the causes, course, consequences, and legacy of the rebellion that shook the foundations of British authority in India.

Beginning in May 1857, with the uprising of Indian sepoys in the British East India Company's army at Meerut, the revolt quickly spread across northern and central India. Cities like Delhi, Kanpur, Lucknow, Jhansi, and Gwalior became epicenters of intense conflict. Leaders like Bahadur Shah Zafar, Rani Lakshmibai, Tantia Tope, Nana Sahib, and Begum Hazrat Mahal emerged as symbols of resistance.

In this course, we will:

  • Analyze the political, economic, social, and military causes of the revolt.

  • Study the key events and major leaders of the uprising.

  • Understand the British response and the reasons for the eventual failure of the revolt.

  • Examine the long-term consequences and its role in shaping India's future freedom movement.

  • Explore various historical interpretations, from nationalist to colonial and modern perspectives.

By the end of this course, learners will gain a comprehensive understanding of the Revolt of 1857—not just as an isolated military rebellion, but as a complex and multifaceted struggle that laid the groundwork for the Indian independence movement in the 20th century
