Book excerpt: Penned by a recently-retired senior bureaucrat who is well versed in the administrative machinery of the Government of India and who possesses the ease and flair of a natural writer, these anecdotes of governmental corruption are at times so humourous that one forgets the gravity of the problem under discussion, while at other moments the magnitude of the problem is laid bare.
Book Synopsis Culture, Language and Identity by : C. T. Indra
Download or read book Culture, Language and Identity written by C. T. Indra and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-12-12 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines the relationship between language and power across cultural boundaries. It evaluates the vital role of translation in redefining culture and ethnic identity. During the first phase of colonialism, mid-18th to late-19th century, the English-speaking missionaries and East India Company functionaries in South India were impelled to master Tamil, the local language, in order to transact their business. Tamil also comprised ancient classical literary works, especially ethical and moral literature, which were found especially suited to the preferences of Christian missionaries. This interface between English and Tamil acted as a conduit for cultural transmission among different groups. The essays in this volume are on chosen areas of translation activities and explore cultural, religious, linguistic and literary transactions. This volume and its companion (which looks at the period between 1900 CE to the present) cover the late colonial and postcolonial era and will be of interest to students, scholars and researchers of translation studies, literature, linguistics, sociology and social anthropology, South Asian studies, colonial and postcolonial studies, literary and critical theory as well as culture studies.

Download or read book Ending Corruption? written by N Vittal and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2010 mega-scams created a crisis of trust in governance and the leadership. Seeking solutions, N. Vittal analyses the record of the institutions involved and traces the roots of the growing rot to the decline of accountability in public life, the lack overall of transparency in governance, besides general greed and decline in integrity. As a prominent insider in government for over four decades, he believes that greater transparency and use of technology and ensuring there is no alternative can reform our system. The curb on use of money power in state elections and the 2010 landmark judgement in the case of P.J. Thomas’s appointment as Central Vigilance Commissioner are such steps. Through greater application of Right to Information, strengthening of watchdog bodies like the judiciary or the Central Election Commission, and choosing people of integrity and commitment to man them, besides an alert civil society and media, Vittal is optimistic of achieving a clean India.

Book Synopsis Historical Dictionary of the Tamils by : Vijaya Ramaswamy
Download or read book Historical Dictionary of the Tamils written by Vijaya Ramaswamy and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-08-25 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tamils have an unbroken history of more than two thousand years. Tamil, the language they speak, is one of the oldest living languages in the world. The only people comparable to the Tamils in terms of their hoary past and vibrant present would be the Jews with one marked difference. The Tamils have always had their homeland 'Tamilaham' (alternately pronounced and spelt 'Tamizhaham') known today as Tamil Nadu which to them represents their mother and is revered by them as 'Tamizh Tai' literally ‘Tamil Mother’. This is in striking contrast to the Jews who have been through a long and arduous struggle to gain their homeland, a deeply contested site to this day with Hebrewisation of Israel being a key marker of Jewish identity in the region. Tamils, by contrast have a clear numerical majority in the region that now comprises Tamil Nadu and the language unites rather than divides adherents of different faiths. The second edition of Historical Dictionary of the Tamils contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 600 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about the Tamils.

Book Synopsis History is a Mystery in India by : London Swaminathan
Download or read book History is a Mystery in India written by London Swaminathan and published by Pustaka Digital Media. This book was released on 2023-01-20 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is another collection of articles of historical interest which illustrate the economic and cultural strength of India. History has been a mystery in India because of unfilled gaps. It is our duty to discard the incomplete history written by foreign rulers and write our own history. Ten years ago, I wrote six part article to show that India is the richest country in the world. We have lot of domestic reserve of gold. I also showed how much the Bible borrowed from us in words and thoughts. Rig Veda contains many riddles which may contain historical truths. Scholars from different fields have to sit together to solve them.
Book Synopsis Thousand More Hindu Quotations For Speakers And Students by : London Swaminathan
Download or read book Thousand More Hindu Quotations For Speakers And Students written by London Swaminathan and published by Pustaka Digital Media. This book was released on 2023-04-25 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is my second volume of 1000 more quotations mostly from Hindu scriptures. This is a Book of Quotations with a difference. I have included books from Sanskrit and Tamil languages. Most of the quotation books sold in India have more foreign quotations than Hindu quotes. It is very rare to see Kalidasa or Tamil Tiru Valluvar in such books. I have given quotations from Panchatantra, Hitopadesa, Kalhana’s Raja Tarangini, Tamil poet Bharati, Sikh Gurus, Manu and Sanskrit dramas. The date of first posting in my blogs and the serial number are in all the posts. Last but not the least, I have divided them topic wise or subject wise.

The relationship between Hinduism and social organisation is also considered, with detailed discussion regarding the importance of the caste system.
