Download or read book India at 70 written by Ruth Maxey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India at 70: Multidisciplinary Approaches examines Indian independence in August 1947 and its multiple afterlives. With nine contributions by a range of international scholars, it interrogates 1947 and its complex, bloody aftermath in historical, political and aesthetic terms. This original collection conceives of Indian independence in bold and innovative ways by moving across national boundaries and disciplinary, geopolitical and linguistic landscapes; and by examining a wealth of under-researched primary material, both recent and historical. India at 70 is a unique and indispensable contribution to Indian history, literary and cultural studies.

Book excerpt: This anthology is a voluminous compendium of 37 unique and meticulously crafted chapters, each analysing a separate text by a pioneering Indian diaspora writer, with no repetition of authors or texts.

Within these chapters, a carefully curated and evocative array of diverse themes and concerns addressed by these writers unfolds, offering a comprehensive exploration of the diasporic literary terrain.

Unlike similar anthologies, this compilation is a painstaking, granular exploration of the literary oeuvre of Indian diaspora writers, highlighting an eclectic mix of genres and remarkable diaspora experiences. In an era characterised by increased migration and cultural hybridity, this anthology is an essential read for scholars, researchers, faculty members, students, and all connoisseurs of literature alike.
