Some of these were published in learned journals and books in Europe, India and Australia, while others appear in this book for the first time. Together they are an exploration into historiography. The author, using the old tools of history, neglected by the postmodernists, draws the attention of the young historians to the future of our past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book starts with the role of the historian in society; then in three other essays the author discusses the methods in the study of the history and state. Yet another essay deals with the historiography of nationalism. The book ends with an essay on 'autobiography as history'.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreface vii Introduction ix The Citizen Historian 1 \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Social Implications of the Political Thought of Raja Rammohun Roy 11 \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaja Rammohun Roy and the Status of Women in Bengal in the Nineteenth Century 41\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Idea of the Village Community and the British Administrators 66\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolitics and Poetics: Sir William Jones and the Debate on Aesthetics in the Eighteenth Century 75\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSatinath Bhaduri's 'The Vigil': An Essay on the Novel and History 92\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigins of Indian Nationalism: Some Questions on the Historiography of Modern India 104\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Tradition of Rama Gupta and the Indian Nationalist Historians 120\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolygamy and Genealogy in the Gupta Age: A Note on Feudalism from Above in Ancient India 126\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Discovery of Nehru: Autobiography as History 138 \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Manohar Books","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52640516997400,"sku":"9788173041419","price":41.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/citizen-historian-explorations-in-historiography-hardback-9788173041419","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
