Reframing India in World History
Lexington Books (Verlag)
978-1-6669-0556-4 (ISBN)
Reframing India in World History breaks the stereotypical portrayal of India based on misconstrued historical theories. Prevalent constructions of Indian history are tinged with colonial historical frameworks and presentation. It is important to understand India for what it is in the past based on self-determined frameworks derived from Indian history to reclaim India’s place in the world history. Based on new evidence-based research, Lavanya Vemsani explores
patterns of civilization that are indigenous to India to investigate its history from the beginning to the present. This book covers topics central to a comprehensive understanding of the nation including a discussion of long held cultural notions, civilization continuity, and the historical crises deriving from conquests and colonization.
Lavanya Vemsani is Board of Trustees Distinguished Professor of History in the Department of Social Sciences at Shawnee State University and Honorary Visiting Professor of History at Jawaharlal Nehru University.
