"An important book, a major work, that must be read and absorbed by thoseinvolved in scholarship, or any critical enterprise." -- TheIndependent How does the Western worldrepresent India? To what extent is knowledge of the people and institutions of theIndian sub-continent based on the West's own desires for world hegemony, andfantasies about its rationality? In this controversial and widely-praised book, Inden argues that the West's major depictions of India as the civilization of caste, villages, spiritualism, and divine kings -- and as a land dominated by imaginationrather than reason -- have had the effect of depriving Indians of their capacity torule their world, which has consequently been appropriated by those in the West whowish to dominate it. First published in 1990, Imagining India is required reading in many university courses. This editioncontains a new introduction.
