内容説明
Divided into eight sections,The Oxford India Nehru covers Nehru's writings spanning six decades and includes over 230 letters, articles, extracts from books, notes penned in jail, political statements, and diary entries, as also some of his very early personal correspondences. Apart from new writings, the current volume draws material from the two-volume The Essential Writings of Jawaharlal Nehru edited by S. Gopal and Uma Iyengar, which included within its covers some of Jawaharlal Nehru's most representative writings. The extraordinary felicity and elegance of these writings ranging from wildlife to culture, from communalism to science and technology, reveal the many facets of Nehru's personality-a devoted son working incessantly to achieve political freedom for his motherland; a committed statesman striving for a secular, egalitarian, and democratic society in a newly-independent India; a visionary laying a strong foundation for science and technology, and launching the atomic energy programme; an aesthete delighting in the rains, natural beauty, and good books.
Including this astonishing range of themes - be it metaphysics, brooms, horse breeding, governance, or the Hindu Code Bill - addressed by Nehru in thought and action is aimed at reaching out to a larger audience, including young readers.
