Th/19th-Century Narratives and Translations of Science in the South Asian Islamicate World
The period between 1750 and 1900 was one of major political and cultural transformation in South Asia. Politically, the Mughal Empire had gone into rapid decline, new kingdoms emerged as cultural centers at the periphery of the empire, and as the 19th century commenced, the East India Company became more entrenched in the politics of the subcontinent, preceding the formal inauguration of colonial rule. This chapter examines the processes of the p…

Shaheed Bhagat Singh and his Revolutionary Inheritance
This article deals with the revolutionary legacy of Bhagat Singh. We commemorate him for his sacrifice every year but the centenary year should give us an opportunity to go beyond his martyrdom and delve into the ideology and programme he stood for. He was not an emotional nationalist who decided to die or kill for the independence of the country. He actually had a serious alternative agenda for governance. I have tried to show how most of the is…

Reconciling science with Islam in 19th century India
This article deals with the reconciliation of modern science with Islam in 19th century India. This is done through a comparative study of two well known intellectuals and reformers: Syed Ahmad Khan and Jamaluddin Afghani. Both believed that science had been central to early Islam from the 8th to the 13th or 14th centuries, but that the situation had since then reversed. While no attempt is made to go into the early period, it never theless provi…
The Moral Legitimation of Modern Science
This paper takes up the discussion of a nineteenth-century theory of science — that of biological evolution — among members of the Indian National Council of Education, and in the pages of an important journal called The Dawn, published from Calcutta between 1897 and 1913. It discusses how, toward the turn of the century, science was legitimated as a morally worthy endeavour among the Bengali Bhadralok community. The debate pursued in The Dawn wa…

Ramchandra's Treatise through `The Haze of the Golden Sunset
In 1850, Yesudas Ramchandra published a work entitled A Treatise on the Problems of Maxima and Minima. The inspiration behind the work lay in the nineteenth-century understanding that the Indian tradition of mathematics was essentially algebraic. As part of the task of `revitalization' undertaken by the avant-garde of the Indian intelligentsia, Ramchandra sought to introduce the Indian people to the latest developments in calculus, in their `nati…
