A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

It is a truth seldom acknowledged that Indian literary history would be incomplete without some account of modern Indian poetry in English. Mapping the Nation accomplishes a substantial service, filling a need by ranging across the diverse productions of an era crucial to the mapping not only of nation, but of secular modernity and metropolitan identity, showcasing brilliantly the unlikely materials that in some part constitute contemporary Indian discourse to this day.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Focusing specifically on the poetic construction of India, Mapping the Nation offers a broad selection of poetry written by Indians in English during the period 1870 1920. Centring upon the mapping of India both as a regional location and as a poetic ideal this unique anthology presents poetry from various geographical nodal points of the subcontinent, as well as that written in the imperial metropole of England, to illustrate how the variety of India s poetical imagining corresponded to the diversity of her inhabitants and geography.
