India's Forests, Real and Imagined
Author: Alan Johnson
language: en
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
Release Date: 2022-12-29
As they seek to explore evolving and conflicting ideas of nationhood and modernity, India's writers have often chosen forests as the dramatic setting for stories of national identity. India's Forests, Real and Imagined explores how these settings have been integral to India's sense of national consciousness. Alan Johnson demonstrates that modern writers have drawn on older Indian literary traditions of the forest as a place of exile, trial and danger to shape new ideas of India as a modern nation. The book casts new light on a wide range of modern writers, from Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay – widely regarded as the first Indian novelist – to contemporary authors such as Amitav Ghosh, Arundhati Roy, and Salman Rushdie as well as local attitudes to nationhood and the environment across the country.
The Environment and World History
Author: Edmund Burke III
language: en
Publisher: Univ of California Press
Release Date: 2009-04-08
Since around 1500 C.E., humans have shaped the global environment in ways that were previously unimaginable. Bringing together leading environmental historians and world historians, this book offers an overview of global environmental history throughout this remarkable 500-year period. In eleven essays, the contributors examine the connections between environmental change and other major topics of early modern and modern world history: population growth, commercialization, imperialism, industrialization, the fossil fuel revolution, and more. Rather than attributing environmental change largely to European science, technology, and capitalism, the essays illuminate a series of culturally distinctive, yet often parallel developments arising in many parts of the world, leading to intensified exploitation of land and water. The wide range of regional studies—including some in Russia, China, the Middle East, India, Southeast Asia, Latin America, Southern Africa, and Western Europe—together with the book's broader thematic essays makes The Environment and World History ideal for courses that seek to incorporate the environment and environmental change more fully into a truly integrative understanding of world history. CONTRIBUTORS: Michael Adas, William Beinart, Edmund Burke III, Mark Cioc, Kenneth Pomeranz, Mahesh Rangarajan, John F. Richards, Lise Sedrez, Douglas R. Weiner
Cause and Effect - Philosophy of Existence of Non-Existence – Tatvabodh of Bhramgyan from Vedant/Upanishads
This book is about “Cause (kaaran) and Effect (karya),” philosophy which says that one event (kaaran) gives rise to something else (the effect). In this book, the author has explained soul (Atma/Atman/Consciousness), God (Ishwar/Bhram/Brahm), world (Jagat/Universe), happiness and sorrow, life and death, bondage and salvation (Moksha), life (Praan), inanimate (Jad) things, self-knowledge and ignorance (avidhya/agyaan), truth (Sat/Eternal Truth) and untruth (Asat), mind (Chitta), senses (Indriyaan) and Jiva through different Darshan Shastra. This short, concise book gives a general idea of Jiva, Jagat, and Brahm. The author has tried his best to explain this concept with different stories so that the core concept can be understood better. This does not claim to cover any course or exam curriculum; it is instead a motivational book. However, it might help build the foundation of students who are studying philosophy and motivate them to do something good for society and carry forward the legacy of THE SANATAN SATYA.
