| Summary, etc | A contribution to the understanding of Indian history as a discipline, this book explores the politics of history-writing in India. It narrates the engagement of a civilisation with the historical sensibility and modality. In doing so, it asserts that history, in order to be understood better, has to deploy the language of the layperson in India. |
