'Mutiny at the Margins' was a two-year project that aimed to provide new insights into the Indian Uprising of 1857-58 through thematic, collaborative research, a network of scholars centred on Edinburgh, and international conferences. The project's objectives were: 1. To provide long overdue revisionist perspectives on the Indian Uprising of 1857 by undertaking new research on the subject in a thematic and collaborative fashion. Discrete, but interlocking research strands were to explore the involvement of various socially marginal groups that are often written out of traditional 'elite' historiography of 1857. This was achieved by the allotment of research time to the Principal applicant and Co-investigator and by the employment of two research assistants. Together this research team aimed at producing a single authored monograph, and several academic articles. 2. To create a network of interested scholars nationally and internationally and to make Edinburgh the focal point for researchers working on projects relating to the seminal events of 1857. It was a major objective of the project to bring together the most cutting edge research in the field. To this end there were conferences in Edinburgh and New Delhi in 2007, a further conference in London in 2008, together with workshops, seminars and quarterly meetings of interested scholars. The outcome was the production of edited volumes bringing together the best of on-going research. 3. To take advantage of the 150th Anniversary of the Uprising to raise public interest and to disseminate the findings of the research to a wide audience, both within and outside the academic community. This was to be achieved through collaboration with institutions such the National Library of Scotland, which organised an exhibition entitled 'Tea and Tiger' in 2007 and through public lectures, seminars and articles in the non-academic press. 4. To provide resources to assist with teaching on this subject, in both schools and universities, by the production of a website advertising the project and providing downloadable primary source material, abstracts of on going research, references and useful links. The aim was also to produce a source book containing primary source material, emphasising lesser known aspects of the Uprising, for the benefit of scholars and students.

“边缘的叛乱”是一个为期两年的项目，旨在通过主题，合作研究，以爱丁堡为中心的学者网络和国际会议，提供对1857-58年印度起义的新见解。该项目的目标是：1。通过以主题和合作方式对1857年印度起义进行新的研究，提供早就应该的修正主义观点。离散的，但环环相扣的研究线索是探索各种社会边缘群体的参与，往往是写出来的传统的“精英”的1857年史学。这是通过向主要申请人和共同研究者分配研究时间以及雇用两名研究助理来实现的。这个研究小组的目标是共同撰写一本专著和几篇学术文章。2.建立一个国内和国际感兴趣的学者网络，使爱丁堡成为研究1857年开创性事件相关项目的研究人员的联络点。该项目的一个主要目标是汇集该领域最前沿的研究。为此，2007年在爱丁堡和新德里举行了会议，2008年在伦敦又举行了一次会议，同时还举办了讲习班、研讨会和有关学者的季度会议。其结果是编辑卷的生产汇集了最好的正在进行的研究。3.利用起义150周年的机会，提高公众的兴趣，并向学术界内外的广大受众传播研究结果。这是通过与苏格兰国家图书馆等机构合作来实现的，该图书馆在2007年举办了一个题为“茶与老虎”的展览，并通过公开讲座、研讨会和在非学术媒体上发表文章来实现。4.提供资源，以协助教学就这一问题，在学校和大学，通过制作一个网站广告的项目，并提供可下载的主要来源材料，摘要正在进行的研究，参考和有用的链接。其目的也是为了制作一本包含主要原始材料的原始资料书，强调起义中鲜为人知的方面，以造福学者和学生。
