Paperback. Zustand: Good. First published in 1937, this magisterial account of India in the 1930s contains the impressions and thoughts of Halid?dib, a Turkish writer who is not interested in imagining, inscribing or inventing India, but rather in documenting its multifaceted personality. Edib's idea of India is firmly anchored…in the historical and sociological insights she gained during her stay in the subcontinent, and especially through her meetings with Mahatma Gandhi and other leading figures of the nationalist movement. In this book, she sums up aspects of Indian nationalism, pointing to its strengths and weaknesses, and highlights its encounters with British colonialism. She perceives the idea of pan Islamism.
