Paperback
Published : Thursday 24 March 2011
Description
A critical examination of post-colonial Indian history-writing, the book analyzes the uses made of Indias often millennial past by nationalist ideologues who sought a specific solution to Indias predicament on its way to becoming a post-colonial state. From independence to the present, it considers the competing visions of Indias liberation from her apocalyptical present to be found in the thinking of Gandhi, V.D. Savarkar, Nehru and B.R. Ambedkar as well as V.S. Naipaul and Salman Rushdie.
