Indian Renaissance and Rabindranath Tagore
These articles are mostly lectures delivered in the past many years on Tagore in different forums within India and abroad and also during my stay at Edinburgh Napier University as First Tagore Chair.

The Becoming of a Hero
Identity conflicts, a prominent feature of our times, a phenomenon of belonging somewhere yet belonging nowhere, are increasingly finding their way into cinema. This book looks at the representations of identity conflicts in India on the canvas of Indian cinema, connecting them with broader socio-political developments in contemporary India. Starting with the historical background of how political developments in Europe like the emergence of Nation states, secularism, modernity influenced socio-political developments in India in the past century, the book looks at how those developments have shaped modern India. While looking at the cinematic representations of a variety of identity conflicts through the lens of cultural and political analysis, it provides insights into how the construct of an Identity and the inherent conflicts associated with it evolve and manifest themselves through the medium of a film.
Eng Bhartrhari (25)
Bhartrhari (450-500A.D.) Holds A Unique Position In The History Of Both Theory Of Grammar And General Agamic Philosophy. He Is The Best Exponent Of The ýSphotaý Theory And An Outstanding Writer On The Philosophy Of Language. The Most Important Thesis Of Bhartrhari Is About The Relationship Between The Word And Sentence. The Meaning Of The Word Is Not Arrived At By Putting Together The Meanings Of Each Word That Constitutes It; Not Does The Sentence As A Whole Have A Meaning Which Can Be Explained By The Real Meaning Of Words. Ludwig Wittgenstein Born In Vienna, (1889-1951) Is One Of The Most Influential Philosophers Of The 20Th Century; Is Best Known Mainly For His Two Treatises. The Tractatus (1922) And The Philosophical Investigations (1953). For Wittgenstein Also, The Meaningful Unit Is Not A Word But A Sentence. Though Bhartrhari Of The East And Wittgenstein Of The West Say That There Is A Public Component In The Meaning Of A Word, They Speak Differently About The Presence And The Role Of The Mental In The Meaningful Use Of A Word.
The Rose and the Lotus
Raja Rao, one of the founding figures of Indian English literature, is re-examined in this comprehensive study of his fiction, which offers a fresh critical investigation into both his short stories and his novels. Powerfully contradicting the long-held perception of Raja Rao as a mere metaphysical writer and the true bard of quintessential Indianness, projected by many critics of the first Commonwealth generation over three decades, Stefano Mercanti posits Rao's fiction in terms of its dialogic interaction - the 'partnership' - between Western and Eastern cultural traditions and demonstrates how it evolves during the course of his oeuvre on both the philosophical and the political level. Th...
School, Society, Nation
This book is an anthology that deals with the problems and challenges of contemporary Indian education. This volume has 20 essays by eminent persons that discuss child-oriented ideas regarding curricula, books and the learning processes. Many writers in this book speak from a lifetime of engagement with education about issues as varied as globalisation and its impact on education to the importance of educational methods that do not discriminate between boys and girls, the disabled and the non-disabled, the rich and the poor. This book does not aim to merely report current educational research and pertinently, seeks to promote debate on difficult issues confronting us in education.
