Imperialism and Colonialism: Christopher Bayly, Richard Rathbone
and Richard Drayton is a collection of interviews that are being
published as a book for the first time. These interviews have been
conducted by one of England's leading social anthropologists and
historians, Professor Alan Macfarlane. Filmed over a period of
several years, the three conversations in this volume are part of
the series Creative Lives and Works. These transcriptions form a
part of a larger set of interviews that cut across various
disciplines, from the social sciences and the sciences to the
performing and visual arts. The current volume is on three foremost
imperial and global historians. Colonialism is intrinsically linked
to its imperial past. Christopher Bayly, Richard Rathbone and
Richard Drayton, come alive through these conversations in this
book. They offer a refreshing perspective to the actions of the
colonizer and the colonized, often deriding the actions of the
former. Bayly talks at great length about his Indian experience,
Rathbone talks about the tempered indifference of the larger
academic community towards African history and its oral tradition
and Drayton engages his readers with anecdotes and interesting
insights into Creole culture. The book will be of enormous value
not just to those interested in the subject of History, Culture
Studies, Ethnography and Comparative Studies and Literature but
also to the uninitiated because of the lucidity which conversations
bring to even otherwise opaque discussions.. Please note: This
title is co-published with Social Science Press, New Delhi. Taylor
& Francis does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India,
Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
