Orient BlackSwan Pvt. Ltd. 2014. Hardcover. New. 14x21 cm. A rare Indian colony of the Danish empire. A place that fostered the modern printing press and Protestant Christianity in the subcontinent. A tourist haunt that was ravaged by the tsunami in 2004. This is Tranquebar known as Tharangampadi a charming coastal town in present-day Tamil Nadu. Beyond Tranquebar is a collection of twenty-four essays by scholars who bring to relief the many dimensions of this town. The book takes us to seventeenth-century Denmark as the kingdom strives to find a place in the thriving colonial enterprise. It moves east to Maratha-ruled Tanjore where gifts can shift the balance of power. It takes us to a place where ideas textiles and furniture arrive and depart from as far away as Serampore in Bengal and Copenhagen in Denmark—going beyond geography to contribute to literacy and education in India and alter tastes in distant Europe. This volumeexamines the place from the perspectives of a diverse range of academic disciplines—social anthropology art history sociology of religion ethnography and history. It enquires into the lives of natives and foreigners i.e. Danish German and British as they grappled across borders both physical and cultural in the past and the present. This collectionis unique in that it centres on activities which radiated from this important south Indian place instead of seeing this place as an appendix to the national history of Denmark or to the Christian mission activities from Germany. Thereby the authors and editors of this volume peg Tranquebar in its rightful place in the scholarly map. This book will be useful for students and scholars of colonial history South Asian studies and anthropology. They will benefit from the diverse strands of research a seemingly small place offers.

Orient Blackswan Pvt. Ltd 2014. Hardcover. New. This nineteenth volume of the People’s Linguistic Survey of India attempts to document the languages of the State of Meghalaya beginning at the grassroots and involving speakers from all walks of life so as to bring to readers the linguistic and cultural heritage of the state. Apart from the dominant languages spoken in the state Khasi Pnar and Garo the varieties of these languages too are described in great detail. Care has been taken to record the voices of the informants in the true nature of the survey so that the volume is not a mere cataloguing of languages but mirrors the spirit and world view of the speakers. For languages are an extension of people’s existence and being. In the discussions about the languages there is information about their contemporary status while the sections on the main languages also contain information about their historical evolution and structural aspects. The linguistic maps included in the volume also give a general idea of areas where the main languages are spoken. It is hoped that this volume will not only engage the reader but will also stand as testimony to a people’s search for their roots.Table of Contents The People’s Linguistic Survey of India vii The National Editorial Collective ix List of Volumes xiii Acknowledgements xvii Foreword xix A Nation Proud of Its Language Diversity: Chief Editor’s Introduction xxiii Editorial xxxiii Introduction to the Volume xxxvii Contributors to the Volume xxxix An Appeal to Readers xli A Note on the Scripts used in Meghalaya xlv The Process of Compilation of the People’s Linguistic Survey of India Meghalaya xlix List of Languages and their Varieties Covered in this Volume liii List of Abbreviations liv PART I : KHASI 1.
