Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Ignorant in India An apology is looked for from people who, not having spent a lifetime in India, nevertheless venture to write a book about it. I offer mine willingly, the more willingly, because I am not guilty, I think, of the usual crime of offering hints to Lieutenant-Governors on how to govern, or even of undertaking, on behalf of people at home, a complete and critical survey of the needs and aspirations of the Bengali. Bather I have erred in not being serious enough, and in failing to make clear how many delightful and intelligent natives I met - not least among them that one who so courteously showed me round the station.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Actual India: An Outline for the General Reader N his recent speech at the Guildhall Lord Curzon said, I I sometimes think that the most remarkable thing about British rule in India is the general ignorance that prevails about it in England. When such a remark may be made, nemine contradicente, by a Viceroy of India, there need be no apology for a little book designed to serve as a brief introduction to the study of Indian afihirs. The chief merit of the work is that it contains in a succinct form a quantity of information about India which the reader could not obtain for himself without consulting a great variety of larger productions, including many ofiicial publications.

Book Synopsis Is India Civilized? by : John Woodroffe
Download or read book Is India Civilized? written by John Woodroffe and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Is India Civilized?: Essays on Indian Culture The question which forms the title of this book is of course absurd. Even the most antipathetic or ignorant would admit that India has a civilization (as he would say) "of sorts." There is an acute difference as to the value of it. The question however is not mine but is raised by Mr. Wm. Archer, a literary and dramatic critic of note in his recent book "India and the Future." He finds India as a whole to be in the state of "Barbarism." "What does it matter if he does say so," said an Indian to me, adding "this is only the last of a long list of misunderstanding works abusive of our country and its culture." That is so, though the number is increasing now-a-days of those who respect both. Yet this indifferent attitude is a mistake. India cannot at the present moment allow any charges against her to go unanswered. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis India and the English (Classic Reprint) by : Barbara Wingfield-Stratford
Download or read book India and the English (Classic Reprint) written by Barbara Wingfield-Stratford and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from India and the English Of the many books that have been written about India, the greater number fall, roughly speaking, into two categories. One is that of the book which sets out frankly to be a guide to certain districts of India, with, sandwiched in, notes on shikar and, in some instances, detailed descriptions of the author's daily life. The other kind of book is a highly technical treatise upon some given aspect of Indian life - historical, social or political - written by a specialist in the one particular subject undertaken. In writing this book I have aimed at neither of these two ideals, but have instead endeavoured to present to the reader some kind of a unified picture of the many, often contradictory aspects that go to make up the Indian nation and country. For it is only by taking a broad and general view, weighing one thing against another, and looking always to the end, that one can begin to understand the cross currents of present-day India's troubled life.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from India and the Empire: A Lecture and Various Papers on Indian Grievances India and the empire a tie honourable to both and prized by both. She cannot remain the only nation in the Empire which is held in dependence, while she sees younger and less civilised peoples enjoying national autonomy. I feel convinced that if the British public understood the reasonableness and the urgency of India's plea for justice, her demand would be heard and granted. Britain is indifferent because ignorant. The following papers have appeared during the last few weeks, and some interest, at least, has been aroused. They are now published separately, in the hope' of reaching fresh readers, and of arousing further interest.

Book Synopsis Explorations in Cinema through Classical Indian Theories by : Gopalan Mullik
Download or read book Explorations in Cinema through Classical Indian Theories written by Gopalan Mullik and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-26 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores cinema and film theory through classical Indian theories. While non-Western philosophies have largely been ignored by existing paradigms, Gopalan Mullik responds through an interrogation of how audio-visual images are processed by the audiences at the basic level of their being outside of Western experience. In the process, this book moves away from the heavily Eurocentric film discourse of today while also detailing how this new platform for understanding cinema at the most basic level of its meaning can build upon existing film theories rather than act as a replacement for them.
Book Synopsis Philosophy in Classical India by : Jonardon Ganeri
Download or read book Philosophy in Classical India written by Jonardon Ganeri and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-09-01 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This original work focuses on the rational principles of Indian philosophical theory, rather than the mysticism more usually associated with it. Ganeri explores the philosophical projects of a number of major Indian philosophers and looks into the methods of rational inquiry deployed within these projects. In so doing, he illuminates a network of mutual reference, criticism, influence and response, in which reason is used to call itself into question. This fresh perspective on classical Indian thought unravels new philosophical paradigms, and points towards new applications for the concept of reason.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Hand-Book of India and British Burmah If one-half of the world know not how the other half live, it is hoped this little manual will serve in some slight degree to enlighten them. However ignorant the people of India may be concerning their Western cousins, not less so are the people of England and America generally concerning their Eastern cousins; for where one of the latter is seen as a transient visitor in the West, a hundred at least of the former are more or less permanently located in the East.

Book Synopsis The Indian (Classic Reprint) by : George Bird Grinnell
Download or read book The Indian (Classic Reprint) written by George Bird Grinnell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indian This volume might be called one of recollections, for in it have been set down many memories of Indian life. The scenes described I have witnessed with my own eyes; the stories related are those which have been told me by the Indians themselves. These stories are introduced freely because the con crete example conveys a clearer idea of an event than an abstract statement, and because the story of the Indian should not be told wholly from the point of view of a race alien in thought, feeling, and culture. No narrative about any people can do them justice if written by one who is not in some degree in sympathy with them, and acquainted with their ways of thought and with the motives which govern them. Before an intelligent account of it can be given, the stranger race must be comprehended. Long association with Indi ans enables a white man ultimately to share their thought and feelings; and he who has reached this point understands the Indian. He understands that the red man is a savage and has savage qualities, yet he sees also that the most impressive characteristic of the Indian is his humanity. For in his Simplicity, his vanity, his sensitiveness to ridicule, his desire for re venge, and his fear of the supernatural, he is a child and acts like one.

Book Synopsis Cultures Differ Differently by : S. N. Balagangadhara
Download or read book Cultures Differ Differently written by S. N. Balagangadhara and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-11-25 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together a collection of essays by contemporary thinker and social scientist S.N. Balagangadhara which develop an alternative theoretical framework for a comparative study of Western and Asian cultures. These essays illustrate how ‘decolonisation of social sciences’ is a cognitive task and offer novel hypotheses about human beings and society. They demonstrate the implications of cultural difference in the study of domains such as psychology, political theory, ethics, religion, sociology, translation, law, Indology, and philosophy. The book addresses new questions in the study of Western and Indian culture and social sciences, and discusses themes like selfless morality and the moral self; knowledge and action; critical representations of Indian traditions and classical literature; law, religion and culture; translation and interpretations; and varna and social systems. Part of the Critical Humanities Across Cultures series, this interdisciplinary volume will be an essential read for scholars and researchers of philosophy, philosophy of science, ethics, religious studies, postcolonial studies, sociology and social anthropology, cultural studies, literature, comparative studies and Global South studies.
