Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. India is generally regarded as a civilization with a set of intrinsic attributes that emerged in the age of the Vedas or, better still, in the Harappan times. In recent decades, historical studies have moved away from rigid perspectives of singularity in origin and expansion; the emphasis now is on pluralities and long-term processes spanning centuries and millennia. There is also an influential school of thought which rejects antiquity claims such as these and holds that India is a construct of the colonial and nationalist imagination. In his radical reinterpretation of India's past, Manu V. Devadevan moves away from these reifying assessments to examine the evolution of institutions, ideas and identities that are characterized, typically, as Indian. In lieu of endorsing their Indianness, he traces their emergence to specific conditions that developed in India between 600 and 1200 CE, a period which historians now call the 'early medieval'. This book posits that India as an idea is neither a colonial construct nor a phenomenon as old as the Vedas or the Harappan age, but a historical reality that had its beginnings in the 'early medieval' times. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the meaning of India's past. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
