Essays on South Asian writers in English from all parts of the subcontinent who share a common fascination with the English language. South Asian writing in English is thriving and worth reading and studying, either as a whole or separately as Indian, Pakistani, Sri Lankan or Bangladeshi literature. Discusses the fate of the English language after the British left South Asia and the exile's return to a country that has changed and the search for roots.
Coomaraswamy was perhaps the greatest philosopher-theologian of recent times to have emerged from the East. This ambitious work is the first to present a selection of Coomaraswamy's letters to mystics, theologians, art critics, painters, philosophers, writers, and religious thinkers and scholars. No other source reveals the author's erudition, as well as facets of his life and thought, as completely and delightfully as this collection.
Ananda K. Coomaraswamy was engaged in the world not only as a scholarly expositor of traditional culture and philosophy, but also as a radical critic of contemporary life.
