Prithwindra Mukherjee

The Intellectual Roots of India's Freedom Struggle (1893-1918) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Most people believe India's struggle for independence to have begun with Mahatma Gandhi. Little credit goes to the proof that this call for a mass movement did not arise out of a void. The present study with inputs from Indian, European and American archives, carefully straightens out the origins - philosophical, historical and religious and intellectual, so to say - of Indian nationalism. From Rammohun to Sri Aurobindo, passing through Marx and Tagore, the full set of ideological views has been analysed here.
