Editorial Reviews
Review
'[Pandey] has produced an important and influential study which will for many years influence the agenda of the 'history from beneath' approach to the history of partition.' The Journal of Imperial and Commonwealth History
Product Description
Gyan Pandey's latest book is a compelling examination of the violence that marked the partition of India in 1947, and how the preceding events have been documented. In the process, the author provides a critique of history-writing and nationalist myth-making. He also investigates how local forms of community are established by the way in which violent events are remembered and written about. The book will be of interest to historians of South Asia, to sociologists and to anyone concerned with the Indian subaltern story.
