  • So I Knew Their Place Before I Crashed Among Them, Knew When Alexander Had Traversed It in an Earlier Age for This Cause Or That Greed
    I am a man who can recognize an unnamed town by its skeletal shape on a map …. So I knew their place before I crashed among them, knew when Alexander had traversed it in an earlier age for this cause or that greed. I knew the customs of nomads besotted by silks or wells …. When I was lost among them, unsure of where I was, all I needed was the name of a small ridge, a local custom, a cell of this historical animal, and the map of the world would slide into place. – Michael Ondaatje, The English Patient (1992) 112 Marg Vol. 61 No. 1 112-120 Pramod final GJ.indd 112 18/09/09 11:32 AM Special Feature Pramod Kumar K.G. The Photography Archive at the City Palace Museum Udaipur A small slice of Udaipur’s history was uncovered in May 2008 when the City Palace Complex at Udaipur yielded several trunks packed with photographs. Safely maintained over the decades among the various storerooms and inner recesses of the vast City Palace Museum Udaipur (hereafter CPMU), the trunks hold several thousand loose photographs, folios, and framed images, which are currently being catalogued and archived. Numbering more than 15,000 images, these photographs are part of the Pictorial Archives of The Maharanas of Mewar, Udaipur, and are currently housed at the CPMU. A first exhibition of these photographs has already been mounted at the newly restored Bhagwat Prakash Gallery in the Zenana Mahal of the complex. Titled Long Exposure, 1857−1957: The Camera at Udaipur, the exhibition and the study of the collection is gradually revealing an unabashed “native” gaze and perception in what the camera’s lens set out to capture.

Thebe have now been published by the Foreign Mission Board the Stories of our five principal Missions. Written by different authors, four of whom had a personal acquaintance with the fields they wrote about, these Stories aim at giving in a popular form a sufficiently full account of each Mission. But the history of the missionary enterprise of our -Church covers a somewhat wider range. The movement which gave birth to the Secession Church was essentially a spiritual movement. It sought the vindication and diffusion of the truth of the gospel. When the Associate Presbytery had been constituted at Gaimey Bridge on 5 th December 1733, earnest calls for a supply of gospel preaching began to pour in from all parts of Scotland, as well as from England and Ireland; and the Fathers of the Secession, while endeavouring to satisfy the requests of their countrymen at home, were also nobly alive to the spiritual needs of their country- men abroad.

  • Two Millennia of the Sea-Bourne Metals Trade with India
    Indian Journal of History of Science, 48.1 (2013) 1-37 TWO MILLENNIA OF THE SEA-BOURNE METALS TRADE WITH INDIA PAUL T. CRADDOCK* (Received 30 May 2012; revised 27 June 2012) India has always been both a major producer of metals and an active participant in the international metals trade. However, the long term continuity of this trade has not previously been addressed systematically. This is attempted here utilizing historical and archaeological evidences, reinforced by the growing number of the metal ingots themselves, recovered from dated wrecks. Although India produced a wide variety of metals, from Roman times onwards India was a major market for both precious and non-ferrous base metals and this has continued more or less without a break into the 21st century. Zinc, the metal always so closely associated with India, is an especially interesting case. In the medieval period there is some evidence for foreign trade in either zinc or zinc oxide from India, but it is clear that from the late 16th century AD there was a demand for zinc within India itself that home production could not meet and zinc was imported in considerable quantities first from China and latterly from Europe. It is ironic that India, the home of zinc production, should have become a net importer from the post medieval period on. In contrast iron and steel formed the main metal exports from India through the centuries, either as bulk wrought iron or in a variety of specialist iron and steels. The production was at all stages reliant on copious quantities of charcoal, and thus perhaps the ferrous metals should be regarded as another of the forest products along with the exotic spices and timbers that are the more familiar materials of India’s trade with the outside world.

  • Udaipur As a Learning City
    UDAIPUR AS A LEARNING CITY Shikshantar: The Peoples’ Institute For Rethinking Education And Development 21 Fatehpura • Udaipur, Rajasthan • 313004 Telephone: 294-526-003 • Fax: 294-520-177 email: <[email protected]> Draft Project Concept Paper Udaipur As A Learning City Shikshantar is pleased to share the following draft proposal to stimulate critical reflection, open discussion and brainstorming, and creative action. We invite your feedback and support. I. What is a Learning City? Learning Cities is still a nascent movement both conceptually and operationally. There are several definitions for Learning Cities that have been developed in different parts of the world (primarily in industrialized countries) such as Britain, USA, Sweden, Finland, Canada, Japan, and Spain. These definitions are still being evolved and include: “A Learning Community is a city, town or region which mobilizes all of its resources in every sector to develop and enrich all its human potential for the fostering of personal growth, the maintenance of social cohesion, and the creation of prosperity.” Norman Longworth “A Learning City is one with plans and strategies to encourage wealth-creation, personal growth and social cohesion through the development of the human potential of all its citizens.” OECD “A Learning City addresses the learning needs of its locality through partnership. It uses the strengths of social and institutional relationships to bring about cultural shifts in perceptions of the value of human learning. Learning cities explicitly use learning as a way of promoting social cohesion, regeneration and economic development, which involve all parts of the community? Through the range of resources they bring together, learning cities can provide local solutions to local challenges.” Learning City Network However, looking at the diverse and complex philosophies, cultures, histories, experiences, relationships and needs of India, we are not satisfied with the above definitions or the applications that have been derived from these in industrialized countries.

The once capital of the mighty Mewar Kingdom, Udaipur is now one of the most sought after leisure destinations India has to offer. Aptly known as the “City of Lakes”, the scenic Lake Pichola and Fateh Sagar Lake are centres of most of the leisure activity in the city. The atmosphere of royalty can not only be sensed in the palaces and gardens of Udaipur, but by way of the luxury hospitality experience as well. This article focuses on the history and progress of the Udaipur hotel market in addition to a brief outlook of its future potential. Rajasthan: Land of Kings Known for its tourist destinations both domestically and internationally, Rajasthan offers a variety of leisure attractions. Encompassing mountains (Mount Abu), valleys (Udaipur), forests (Sariska National Park and Ranthambore National Park) and the desert (Jaipur, Jodhpur and Jaisalmer), the state has a unique blend of leisure locales (Ref Fig 1.). It is however, the rich heritage and culture shrouded by a sense of royalty, a specialty of the state, which attracts visitors from far and wide.
