The Calling of History: Sir Jadunath Sarkar and His Empire of Truth
Dipesh Chakrabarty
Sir Jadunath Sarkar (1870-1958) was knighted in 1929 and became the first Indian historian to gain honorary membership in the American Historical Association. This book examines Sarkar's career - and poignant obsolescence - as a way in to larger questions about the discipline of history and its public life.
