The Politics of Language: Urdu/Hindi: An Artificial Divide...
Author: A. J. Khan
Publisher: New York
Publication date: 2006
Number of pages: 418

Format / Quality: pdf, ebook
Size: 4 MB
....African Heritage, Mesopotamian Roots, Indian Culture & British Colonialism"

Another one on the topic of Hindi-Urdu-Hindustani.

This is a strange book, with a very idiosyncratic approach. I dismissed it with laughter when I first saw it, but maybe some of the joke was on me, for elements of it keep bothering me. I can't accept his genealogy, but I am certainly open to the idea that epistemologies are heavily historical.

If you find the first half too shocking, realize it becomes less extravagant after about a 100 pages, and the middle part of the book has a lot to offer on Indian cultural history.

Ultimately, I'd rather be provoked than bored by a book.

As for the picture: what did Vilayat Khan think of this language mess? Can we ask him through the akashic records?
