Hardcover. Zustand: New. Language: English. The assumption of India's prime ministership by Vishwanath Pratap Singh has been marked by what can be called an unprecedently questioning attitude by the thinking public, instead of the euphoria which normally accompanies such a sweeping political change. Reinforcing it are a healthy skepticism about the ability of the new government to live up to its electoral commitment and a gnawing apprehension about the longevity of the new dispensation. As the soviet experience with Perestroika has shown, reform and restructuring bring in their wake more problems than the establishment set out to solve. The leadership has to hack its way through the thicket with understanding and determination. So it has been with V.P. Singh's prime ministership. The changing political scenario, the daunting economic situation with massive poverty and selective plenty coexisting in an unviable coalition, the erosion of institutions coupled with dilution of values in public lifenot to mention thorny problems like Kashmir and Punjabconfront the leadership which has to live and thrive by its record in office and not by glib talk. The contributions compiled in this book examine in depth the problems as well as the way they are being tackled by the V.P. Singh government. It is much more than a progress report because it focuses on the problems and their varying nature against a background of desirable ways of dealing with them. The appraisal is hardnosed and critical, even it friendly in outlook because "only a friendly in outlook because "only a friend warns, the enemy strikes." About The Author: Nikhil Chakravartty, is first and foremost. A perspicacious observer of both domestic and international developments, he laces lucidity with elegance in his style of writing.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Language: English. This book seeks to lift into focus the monolithic legacy of the Rashtrakutas at Ellora, from out of the reason that these monoliths perhaps are best suited to understand and reconstruct the artistic, architectural, traditional, religious and cult interactions and growthspectra that had taken place in the period from the 8th to the 10th century A.D., very much more eloquently than the study of the cave temple types. Without the stabilizing role of these monoliths, in the over view of the status of temple art, in that period which the Rashtrakutas adorned by their vigorous patronage, eclecticism and multipronged political thrusts all over India in their heyday, the caveart syndrome would tend to cloy even under the best circumstances, as something repetitive, potteries and commandeered which surely it was not. The book deals with the five monoliths at Ellora, in their own historical architectural, iconographicreligious perspectives, and elucidates how they were greatly diversified and pregnant with rich potential for the reconstruction of the are situation; and it compares them also with their compeer monoliths elsewhere in South India, in the same ilk, as in the Pallava and Pandya zones of the past. The chief aim of the book is to give a satisfactory formal picture of these monoliths and to vest them with the credit of being landmarks in the archetypes they sought to represent. Profusely illustrated and with a helpful set of charts and glossary, it is designed to cover a felt need in art studies at Ellora. About The Author: Dr. K. V. Soundra Rajan (b.1925) took his Postgraduate degree in Sanskrit with Epigraphy form Allahabad University, and was trained and selected in 1947 by Sir Mortimer Wheeler, then Director General, Archaeological Survery of India, as scholar, and by the U.P.S.C. as an officer in 1954. Seeing service in several capacities and varying responsibilities from Prehistory to Temple Survey, he retired recently as Additional Director General in the Survey. Widely traveled in the East and West (where he taught at Chicago and Los Angeles Universities) he has ten books to his credit so far on various aspects of history, art and archaeology. President of the Indian Society for Prehistoric and Quaternary Research, Vice President of the Indian Archaeological Society, and Presidentelect of the Epigraphically Society of India, besides being associated with several learned bodies, and a senior research fellow of the Indian Council of Historical Research, his wide and versatile interests had earned him a reputable place among the senior archaeologists and art historians, alike of India as abroad, as an ardent scholar, writer and speaker.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Language: English. The book is a beautiful narrative of bygone Bundelkhand and verily brings it alive. Based entirely on archaeological remains and epigraphic records of the region, it is an authentic as well as analytical account of Indian's heartland. It defines Bundelkhand tracing the origin of its name and fixing its frontiers in historical perspective. Its social and political formations have been presented with as much precisions as permitted by the sources, documenting in the process the details of interaction between the Little and Great Traditions. Conceived around the coretheme of Religion, the narrative nowhere separates from contemporary political or social structure and economic life or artistic expression. Sources so far unutilised have been utilises and sites so far unnoticed have been noticed. Incorporating a lot that is worthrecording and remembering about Ancient and EarlyMedieval Bundelkhand, the book attempts to cover a period of more than three millennia from the dawn of civilization to the downfall of the Candellas in the fourteenth century A.D. with as many details and as much analysis as can be reasonably accommodated, maintaining the unity of scheme and impression.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Language: English. ABOUT THE BOOK: The Chakmas are a simple hardy, peace loving community professing Buddhism and inhabiting the inaccessible hilly areas in India's north-east viz. the States of Tripura, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Mizoram, the Chittagong Hill Tracts in Bangladesh and Arakan in Purma. Over the years and due to their cultural interaction with the people of other races, mainly Bengalees they have lost much of their original ethnic characteristics, and speak a dialect, Chakma dialect, which is almost the same as south-eastern Bengali, but there is much still which make them a distinctive cultural and ethnic entity. The present crisis of the Chakma community i.e. the ethnic threat which the Chakma inhabitants of the Chittagong Hill Tracts, their traditional homeland, are facing from the religiously prejudiced Bangladeshi rulers stem from the partition of Indian Subcontinent in 1947. The Chakmas much against their will were merged with Pakistan thought in their religion they were much closer to the Hindus than Muslims. Since then the successive rulers of Pakistan, and since 1972 of Bangladesh, have worked systematically for the obliteration of their separate ethnic identity which they have preserved all through their history. This has resulted in their being swamped over by the non-tribal Muslim Bengalees from the plains and their being reduced to minority status in their own homeland. Their saga of woes has stirred the conscience of the freedom-loving people the world over. The ethnographic literature hitherto has singularly lacked in a systematic and definitive study of this fascinating tribe and this great void has been now ably filled by S.P Talukdar through the present work. The book, fruit of the author's years of dedicated and painstaking work, has documented for the first time different aspects of the life of the Chakmas to a great degree of authenticity. ABOUT THE AUTHOR:- S.P. Talukdar was born at Barkal, a small town in chittagong Hill Tracts (Bangladesh) bordering Mizoram. He is the son of Dr (Capt) P.B. Talukdar whose ancestors were member sof the landed aristocracy during the reign of the chakma rajas. He took up a career in the Indian Merchant Navy as an Engineer Officer after qualifying from the directorate of Marine Engineering Training, Calcutta. He travelled around the globe during his stint in the Merchant Navy. Later on he gave up the career of voyaging in favour of a more settled career in Civil Service with the Government of Assam. As a member of Mizoram civil Service now, he holds the position of Deputy Controller, Printing and Stationary Department.
