    MUSEUM COLLECTING AND CONSTRUCTIONS OF IDENTITY IN INDIAN PUNJAB, 1947-1970 Mrinalini Venkateswaran Girton College University of Cambridge September 2020 This thesis is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Faculty of History This thesis is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. It is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. I further state that no substantial part of my thesis has already been submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for any such degree, diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. It does not exceed the prescribed word limit for the relevant Degree Committee. Page 2 of 399 ABSTRACT Museum Collecting and Constructions of Identity in Indian Punjab, 1947-1970 Mrinalini Venkateswaran This thesis takes an original approach to twentieth century south Asian history by linking long established research on partition and postcolonial nation building, with a new domain of enquiry and material: museum historiography and practice. If unpacking colonial museums and collecting practices revealed the workings of colonialism and the colonial state, what can studying postcolonial museums and collecting practices tell us about the nation-state? What sort of national discourse did they generate in these early years, especially when located away from the centre in a region like Indian Punjab? Collecting for a Punjab museum continued throughout the region’s unique experience of changing boundaries and polities from 1947-1966, beginning with partition, and ending with the linguistic reorganisation of states, with a phase of princely federation in between.

  • 2017 Newsletter
    Newsletter 2017 International Training Programme Issue 4, July 2017 Be brave, be creative, take risks! This year’s newsletter focuses on how culture and heritage can provide a platform for new thinking, inviting challenging conversations and addressing current issues – both local and global. Inspired by the theme of ICOM’s International Museums Day – ‘Museums and contested histories: saying the unspeakable in museums’ – we asked our alumni to think about object displays that provoke discussion and debate, delivering a project that requires innovation or courage, and how their museums can be topical and address current – and sometimes difficult – issues. As you will see, it’s a theme that caught the imagination not only of our fellows, but our UK and programme partners too. Thank you all for your wonderful contributions. As well asking our cohort to think creatively, 2017 has been a year for reconnecting and networking. Whether responding to our call for applications for our first ITP+ course Temporary( exhibitions and permanent displays, 15–19 May), the Collaborative Awards or the Senior Fellow role, our ITP alumni have been keeping us up to date with their professional and personal news. As such we have been able to add to our alumni database and share updates with colleagues around the British Museum, the UK and our global network. Finally, over the past 12 months we have been working on an analysis of our 228 fellows from 33 countries. We have focused predominantly on which of our alumni keep in touch – and why and how – and we hope this will give us even more scope for our legacy programme, help us plan for the future and deliver more of the projects and programmes that our alumni tell us they need.
