Two Men and Music: Nationalism and the Making of an Indian Classical Tradition
Bakhle, Janaki (Assistant Professor of Middle East / Asian Languages and Culture, Assistant Professor of Middle East / Asian Languages and Culture, Columbia University)
Presents an account of the development of modern national culture in India using classical music as a case study. This book demonstrates how the emergence of an "Indian" cultural tradition reflected colonial and exclusionary practices. It shows how a nation's imaginings - from politics to culture - reflect rather than transform societal divisions.
