Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Included. Contents: Preface. 1. Introduction. 2. Bentinck, Macaulay and the introduction of English education in India. 3. Dalhousie, Charles Wood and the education despatch of 1854. 4. The utilitarianism of Dalhousie and the material improvement of India. 5. The genesis of Curzon's university reform, 1899-1905. Select bibliography. Index. "Based on archival and other sources at Edinburgh, London, Nottingham, Calcutta and Delhi, Birth of a New India consists of four articles on Bentinck, Dalhousie and Curzon which appeared in the learned journals abroad in the past three decades. Each one of the four articles either corrects an error or rediscovers the truth in the specific contribution of a Governor-General to the creation of a New India in the nineteenth century. "Because of the difficult inaccessibility in India of these journals which carried these articles in the past, they are now put together in a monograph for the use of the graduate and the post-graduate students of history, sociology and education in modern India." (jacket) 127 pp.

Essays on Modern India
First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. A number of features like the spread of English education that characterise modern India have a genesis in institutions and systems set up in British colonial India. Set up not merely to tighten the grip over a vast profitable colony, these were also experiments in social engineering based on the philosophies of Macaulay, Bentham and Mill. India provided a test-bed for ideas that could not possibly be implemented in England itself. The author is one of the foremost historians of Indian education. This book brings together a collection of five essays that deal with the origin of the system of Western education in India under Lord Macaulay and Charles Wood, and subsequent reforms under Lord Curzon, on the use of military force to maintain control over large swathes of the country and the influence of Utilitarianism in Lord Dalhousie s policies. This book is an excellent source material for students and scholars of history of education in British India. (jacket).

Soft cover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. This book challenges centuries old description of us and of our religion as "Hindu". Our Aryan ancestors living on both sides of the river Indus came to acquire this description at the hands of the Persian invaders and conquerors of the North-West India in 519 BC. By that time we were already known as the followers of the Brahmana, Arya or Bharatiya Dharma-an identity born out of our orally composed religious scriptures consisting of the four Vedas, Brahmanas, Aranyaks and Upanishads by our sages. As a reaction to the Persian occupation of the North-West India, the sages now began to put our religious scriptures into Sutras from 400 BC onwards to save our religion from oblivion. The themes of these Sutras based on our religious scriptures composed earlier as well as the later commentaries written on them by our sages do not have either any relevance or reference to the term "Hindu". In the North-West India, the "Hindu" term was obliterated by the Greek who replaced the Persians in 326 BC and soon came to be completely forgotten in the succeeding centuries under the domination of the imperial powers like the Mauryas, the Guptas and the Maukharis till it came to be revived in the middle ages from 1206 on wards by the Muslim invaders and conquerors in the process of the Persianisation of their extensive empire from Kashmir to Kanyakumarika and from Bengal to Gujarat. The British who replaced the Muslim rulers fully by 1857 saw in continuing the use of the term with a religious connotation an instrument of an administrative expediency and our political leaders after independence have also accepted the term,"Hindu", along with the British legacies of ideas and institutions, as a mark of our national and religious identity. And so our "Dharma" continues to be known by a term embossed on us by a pre-Islamic Persia , which has nothing to do with our religion and religious scriptures, and thereby, keeps us in a perpetualstate of loss of our religious identity.

The History of Education in Modern India 1757 2012, presents an overview of the education system in India from its colonial beginnings through Independence till the present day. It examines crucial issues that have shaped India s education system, like the introduction of English education, the Education Despatch of 1854, the genesis of Curzon s university reform of 1899 1905, and the education policy of post-Independence India. In addition, this fourth, revised edition includes the latest discussions and debates around the major changes planned for and already implemented in the education sector, including the recommendations of the National Knowledge Commission, the Yashpal Committee Report on the functioning of bodies in higher and technical education, and enactment of the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009. These are analysed against the background of the huge socioeconomic and political changes brought about in post-liberalisation India. Meticulously researched and lucidly written by a leading authority on the subject, this book is essential reading for students at the graduate and postgraduate levels and anyone with an interest in the history and present state of education in India.
