内容説明

The process of modernization poses a profound challenge to societies. Nowhere is this more true than in India where cultural memories have been severely tested by colonial domination but have been loyally preserved nonetheless. This anthology documents the intellectual struggle of a distinguished group of Indian writers and philosophers in the twentieth century to articulate the meaning of `India' and thereby establish an identity which bridges indigenous tradition and Western-style modernity.
