historical context","Early India is a very informative and well-researched book for anyone interested in Indian history and civilization. The book explains the origins and development of early Indian society, culture, kingdoms, and traditions in a detailed yet engaging manner.What I liked most is how the author presents historical events with proper context instead of just listing dates and facts. The explanations about ancient kingdoms, religions, trade, social structures, and cultural evolution are very insightful and help readers understand the foundations of Indian history more deeply.The writing style is academic but still readable for general readers who are interested in history. The book encourages critical thinking and gives a broader perspective on how early India evolved over centuries.Overall, this is an excellent book for students, history enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to learn about ancient Indian civilization in a detailed and meaningful way. Highly recommended for readers interested in Indian history and culture.","Y.

Thapar takes us through some 4000 years of Indian history, from the founding of the Indus Valley civilization to the era prior to the Delhi Sultanate.She presents a more nuanced periodization of Indian history than the usual Hindu-Islamic-British version that most Indians are familiar with. She writes from what I suppose is a \"Marxist\" perspective, spending considerable time on social and economic processes, class stratification, and agrarian relations (admittedly, I found my eyes glazing over these portions). Her discussions on the symbiotic relationship between the priestly and ruling classes in India are enlightening, though I can see why it might make those of a Hindu nationalist bent uneasy. I was particularly pleased to see South India receive its just share in her narrative.Romila Thapar seems especially anxious to counter the Hindu nationalist vision that is currently prevalent in the country. She takes great pains to portray Indian society as a mixture of both native and foreign cultural streams and to explain how the Islamic attacks were only part of a long series of mutual aggressions by political actors in the region. She makes a well-intentioned attempt to downplay the religious aspect of the Islamic invasions of India toward the beginning of the second millennium AD, but it would behoove us to approach this part of the book with some skepticism.I don't want to comment on what seems to be her political project, but I will note that while Hindu nationalism falls short of being a rational narrative for what our country is, as a pragmatic matter, we do need such a national narrative in order to act coherently as a people. I will be scouting her other books to see whether she has addressed this aspect elsewhere. She clearly has the right credentials for the job and, might I add, the right taste as well.","AV","2024-06-08 00:00:00",[],{"page":14,"per_page":49,"total":61,"total_pages":24},{"product_id":642,"top_question":22,"questions":938,"faqs":939},[],[940,944,947,950,953,956,959],{"id":941,"question":332,"answer":331,"sort_order":942,"is_active":9,"source":943},"ai-1",1002,"ai",{"id":945,"question":335,"answer":334,"sort_order":946,"is_active":9,"source":943},"ai-2",1003,{"id":948,"question":338,"answer":337,"sort_order":949,"is_active":9,"source":943},"ai-3",1004,{"id":951,"question":341,"answer":340,"sort_order":952,"is_active":9,"source":943},"ai-4",1005,{"id":954,"question":344,"answer":343,"sort_order":955,"is_active":9,"source":943},"ai-5",1006,{"id":957,"question":347,"answer":346,"sort_order":958,"is_active":9,"source":943},"ai-6",1007,{"id":960,"question":350,"answer":349,"sort_order":961,"is_active":9,"source":943},"ai-7",1008]
