Hindi Nationalism (Tracts for the Times 13)
By Alok Rai.
Description
This tract looks at the politics of language in India through a study of the history of one language - Hindi. It shows how the transformation of the language was tied up with the politics of communalism and regionalism. This is a powerful tract, written with emotion and passion, sparkling with wit and ideas. It persuades us to rethink the question of National Language, and reflect on the tangled links between language, identity and politics. - from Amzon
