3 STORIES: ABANINDRANATH TAGORE
The three stories in this collection are united by a common theme of chivalry and sacrifice. It was said that Abanindranath Tagore used his pen as an artist uses a brush – to colour old tales and bring them to vivid life. The stories are filled with unforgettable vignettes of heated desert sands and filigreed balconies clinging to sheer mountain walls. Ancient battles and family sagas come to life and it is easy to see how these stories inspired many young freedom fighters to dare and dream of overthrowing their colonial masters. Whether today’s reader seeks inspiration or is simply entertained by these tales of Rajput valor, they are a magical window to the richness of Indian literature.

Art and Nationalism in Colonial India, 1850-1922
Partha Mitter's book is a pioneering study of the history of modern art on the Indian subcontinent from 1850 to 1922. The author tells the story of Indian art during the Raj, set against the interplay of colonialism and nationalism. The work addresses the tensions and contradictions that attended the advent of European naturalism in India, as part of the imperial design for the westernisation of the elite, and traces the artistic evolution from unquestioning westernisation to the construction of Hindu national identity. Through a wide range of literary and pictorial sources, Art and Nationalism in Colonial India balances the study of colonial cultural institutions and networks with the ideologies of the nationalist and intellectual movements which followed. The result is a book of immense significance, both in the context of South Asian history and in the wider context of art history.

Disciplined Natives
This volume examines three interrelated aspects of the history of British India: race, the disciplining institution, and attempts by the colonized to imagine states of freedom. They deal with sites as diverse as the prison, the family, the classroom, the playing field and children's literature. The essays confront the ideological, social and political ramifications of the fact that even as metropolitan prisons and schools shifted their attention from the body to the confined 'soul', colonial disciplinary institutions ensured that race was firmly attached to the body and its habits. They also engage the historiography that has sought to underline the challenges of reconciling Michel Foucault and Edward Said. They ask whether the liberating possibilities of the racialized-and-embodied 'native' self were confined to inversions and rearrangements of given normative hierarchies, or if we can occasionally glimpse radical departures and alternative configurations of power.
Fantasy and the Politics of Subversion
A study of the origins, nature and role of fantasy literature in early 19th century colonial India, this book explores how speculative writing was produced in the context of, and in resistance to, empire.
