Critical Humanities from India Contexts Issues Futures

Critical Humanities from India Contexts Issues Futures

The field of humanities generates a discourse that traditionally addressed the questions of what is proper to man rights of man crimes against humanity human creativity and action human reflection and performance human utterance and artefact. The university as a philosophical-political institution transmits this humanist account. This European humanistic legacy which is little more than Christian anthropology barely received any questioning from cultures that faced colonialism. In such a context this volume attempts to unravel the ‘barely secularized heritage’ of Europe (Derrida’s phrase) and its fatal consequences in other cultures. The task of Critical Humanities is to explore the ways in which the question of being human (along with non-human others) today from heterogeneous cultural ‘backgrounds’ can be undertaken. The future of the humanities teaching and research is contingent upon the risky task of configuring cultural difference from non-European locations. Such a task is inescapable and urgently needed when tectonic cultural upheavals have begun to show devastating effect on planetary coexistence today. It is precisely in such a context that this collection of essays on critical humanities affirms ‘without alibi’ the urgency of collective reflection and innovative research across the traditional disciplinary and institutional borders and communication systems on the one hand and Asian African and European cultural formations on the other. Critical Humanities are at one level little more than communities on the verge (critical) but whose centuries long survival and resilient creations of cultural (and /as natural) habitats are of deeply enduring significance to affirm the biocultural diversities of living that compose the planet. Topical and timely this book will be useful to scholars researchers and teachers of cultural theory literary studies philosophy cultural geography legal studies sociology history performance studies environmental studies caste and communalism studies postcolonial theory India studies and education. | Critical Humanities from India Contexts Issues Futures

They are a valuable prism in gauging the early 20th-century intellectual and Chinese moderniser mind as it grappled with the challenges and uncertainties of those times. An important contribution to the study of Sino-Indian interactions the book will be an indispensable resource for students and researchers of nation nationalism civilisation empire modern history translation studies Chinese Studies and Asian studies. | Kang Youwei Engages India His Travel Narratives (1901–1902) and Predicaments of Civilization and Nation
