FORMATHardcover CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description
A multispectrum person, William Dalrymple (b.20 March 1965) is a Scottish historian and writer, art historian and curator, as well as a broadcaster and critic. Throughout his literary career, Dalrymple has been able to carefully investigate moments of a country's past with the precision of a skilled historian, while at the same time drawing important parallels to more recent events. His passion for India and the surrounding region has brought to Western readers an insight that had previously not been achieved, and so his place among the world's top travel writers is surely assured. In this book an attempt is made to trace the elements of travel literature and history in various works of William Dalrymple. Dalrymple, in all his books, has intertwined his observations, memoirs, interviews, and historical facts which he assimilated through different archives and institutional libraries. He has carefully portrayed his personality in his jovial, humorous, informative, and free narrative. He has also worked meticulously against the faulty generalizations regarding India by some of the western writers and travelers especially in the mid 70s and 80s. The most important privilege he enjoys is that of being an insider and outsider at the same time. His works encompass the issues which perhaps would never have got to the attention and under the scholastic discussions, had he not presented them through his well researched and well pursued interests.
