Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bombay Place-Names and Street-Names: An Excursion Into the by-Ways of the History of Bombay City This little book has been many years in preparation, and is at last published only because no one else appears to have devoted sufficient time and attention to a subject of which only the fringe has here been touched and which seems to me to be of interest and some importance. A book of this kind ought really to be published only after prolonged research into old leases and deeds. That is beyond my powers but I have none the less thought my less recondite work may be of service. It has steadily grown in scope since I started it as an inquiry into the reason why various English surnames have been given to Bombay roads, but the development has only been possible with the assistance of many gentlemen who have the gift of tongues which has been denied to the author-compiler. Among the many friends whom I have to thank for valued assistance are the Hon. Mr. P. R. Cadell, Mr. S. M. Edwardes (from whose writings also I have freely stolen), Mr. J. P. Orr, the Rev. E. R. Hull, S. J., Mr. R. P. Karkaria, Dr. Jivanji Jamshedji Modi, Mr. R. P. Masani, Rao Bahadur P. B. Joshi, and Mr. Kaikhushroo Pestonji Bhedwar. Mr. Karkaria in particular has been of great assistance to me and has taken the trouble to visit many streets where the origin of the names was doubtful. The method followed needs some explanation. When only one theory is put forward to account for the origin of a name I have not as a rule stated from whom that theory has been obtained, and by this means, if I appear to gain the credit for many ingenious derivations, I can also bear the blame for any grievous faults that may have crept in. When my authorities have conflicted I have usually stated who they are, and the public which pays its money for the book may take its choice as to which derivation is likely to be the more correct. If any family history has been misrepresented I offer my apologies in advance to any who may feel hurt, for I have not wilfully put down anything intended to reflect on anyone's ancestry or history.

Book excerpt: Since 1819, more than 6,200 place (street and village) names divided into more than 3,900 name groups were known in Singapore. Based on digitised historical newspapers, dated back to 1830, municipal records and Malay dictionaries, the origins, meanings and date of naming for many place names are uncovered. As part of Singapore history, place names known since 1936 are recorded in this book. Although place names are fairly static in nature, there have been more than 100 name changes. The naming trends transitioned from English to Malay and then back to English names. Discover that Toa Payoh was not named after a big swamp, Anderson Road was named before John Anderson, a former Governor, took up his job and many more new findings in this exciting book.

Book Synopsis Singapore Street Names: A Study of Toponymics by : Victor R Savage

This book was released on 2013-06-15 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive guide to place names in Singapore. Place names tell us much about a country – its history, its landscape, its people, its aspirations, its self-image. The study of place names, ‘toponymics’, unlocks the myriad interlocking stories that are encoded in every street and landmark. In Singapore, the coexistence of various races, cultures and languages, as well as its history of colonisation, immigration and nationalism, have given rise to a complex tapestry of place names. Alkaff Quay, Coleman Bridge, Ann Siang Hill, Bukit Merah – how did these places get their names? Nee Soon or Yishun? Serangoon Road or Tekka? First published in 2003 as Toponymics, this updated and expanded edition of the book incorporates a wealth of new findings, from archival research and interviews, and sets out to answer these questions – and any question that might be asked about the origin, meaning or significance of place names in Singapore

Book Synopsis Memories and Postmemories of the Partition of India by : Anjali Gera Roy
Download or read book Memories and Postmemories of the Partition of India written by Anjali Gera Roy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-12 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the afterlife of Partition as imprinted on the memories and postmemories of Hindu and Sikh survivors from West Punjab to foreground the intersection between history, memory and narrative. It shows how survivors script their life stories to reinscribe tragic tales of violence and abjection into triumphalist sagas of fortitude, resilience, industry, enterprise and success. At the same time, it reveals the silences, stutters and stammers that interrupt survivors’ narrations to bring attention to the untold stories repressed in their consensual narratives. By drawing upon current research in history, memory, narrative, violence, trauma, affect, home, nation, borders, refugees and citizenship, the book analyzes the traumatizing effects of both the tangible and intangible violence of Partition by tracing the survivors’ journey from refugees to citizens as they struggle to make new homes and lives in an unhomely land. Moreover, arguing that the event of Partition radically transformed the notions of home, belonging, self and community, it shows that individuals affected by Partition produce a new ethics and aesthetic of displacement and embody new ways of being in the world. An important contribution to the field of Partition studies, this book will be of interest to researchers on South Asian history, memory, partition and postcolonial studies.
