शकुन्तलम् से यूरोप आश्चर्यचकित रह गया | William Jones | Indian Art | Indian Knowledge
शकुन्तलम् से यूरोप आश्चर्यचकित रह गया | William Jones | Indian Art | Indian Knowledge
Indian Knowledge reached Europe. William Jones Translated Shakuntalam for the first time in English. Then there were 46adaptations of Shakuntalam in 12 languages across Europe. Europe was awestruck with Indian Knowledge. Shakuntalam was praised across Europe and Shakuntala was called the child of Nature. But surprisingly Europe never thought of saving the child of Shakuntala Bharat and kept looting Bharat, the child of Shakuntala.

The Welsh Genius Indo-European Linguist, Sir William Jones
Sir William Jones was a century ahead of his time, and picked up languages from across the globe an age when even dictionaries were in short supply. A linguistic prodigy even as a young boy, he would go on to shape the history of linguistics forever and raising institutions devoted to his field, his work and his passions.
Uniquely Welsh, and Anglo-Welsh, this man's short life gave more than its fair share of output and is worth hearing and sharing, and I hope you will enjoy learning about this incredible man's life from 1746 to 1794.

Decolonizing Indian History with Manan Ahmed through his book Loss of Hindustan. Manan Ahmed is a noted historian. Our guest Manan Ahmed Asif is an Associate Professor of History at Columbia University and author of ‘A Book of Conquest’.
Today, we will discuss Asif’s book ‘ The Loss of Hindustan: The Invention of India’.
A field-changing history explains how the subcontinent lost its political identity as the home of all religions and emerged as India, The land of the Hindus. Did South Asia have a shared regional identity prior to the arrival of Europeans in the late fifteenth century? This is a subject of heated debate in scholarly circles and contemporary political discourse. Man an Ahmed as if argues that Pakistan, Bangladesh, and the Republic of India share a common political ancestry: they are all part of a region whose people understand themselves as Hindustani. As if describes the idea of Hindustan, as reflected in the work of native historians from roughly 1000 CE to 1900 CE, and how that idea went missing. This makes for a radical interpretation of how India came to its contemporary political identity. As if argues that a European understanding of India as Hindu has replaced an earlier, native understanding of India as Hindustan, a home for all faiths. Turning to the subcontinent medieval past, as if uncovers a rich network of historians of Hindustan who imagined, studied, and shaped their kings, cities, and societies. As if closely examines the most complete idea of Hindustan, elaborated by the early seventeenth century Deccan historian firishta. His monumental work, Tarikh-i firishta, became a major source for European philosophers and historians, such as Voltaire, Kant, Hegel, and gibbon during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Yet firishta’s notions of Hindustan were lost and replaced by a different idea of India that we inhabit today. The loss of Hindustan reveals the intellectual pathways that dispensed with multicultural Hindustan and created a religiously partitioned world of today.
