  • Empire's Garden: Assam and the Making of India

    Empire's Garden: Assam and the Making of India

    A book in the series Radical Perspectives a radical history review book series Series editors: Daniel J. Walkowitz, New York University Barbara Weinstein, New York University History, as radical historians have long observed, cannot be severed from authorial subjectivity, indeed from politics. Political concerns animate the questions we ask, the subjects on which we write. For over thirty years the Radical History Review has led in nurturing and advancing politically engaged historical research. Radical Perspec- tives seeks to further the journal’s mission: any author wishing to be in the series makes a self-conscious decision to associate her or his work with a radical perspective. To be sure, many of us are currently struggling with the issue of what it means to be a radical historian in the early twenty-first century, and this series is intended to provide some signposts for what we would judge to be radical history. It will o√er innovative ways of telling stories from multiple perspectives; comparative, transnational, and global histories that transcend con- ventional boundaries of region and nation; works that elaborate on the implications of the postcolonial move to ‘‘provincialize Eu- rope’’; studies of the public in and of the past, including those that consider the commodification of the past; histories that explore the intersection of identities such as gender, race, class and sexuality with an eye to their political implications and complications. Above all, this book series seeks to create an important intellectual space and discursive community to explore the very issue of what con- stitutes radical history. Within this context, some of the books pub- lished in the series may privilege alternative and oppositional politi- cal cultures, but all will be concerned with the way power is con- stituted, contested, used, and abused.

    Dr. S. K. Bhuyan and Historical Research in Assam

    1 Dr. S. K. Bhuyan and Historical Research in Assam Dr.R.D.Choudhury Late Dr. Suryya Kumar Bhuyan has become a legendary figure in the studies of history of Assam. Without his reference we cannot talk of the research of the history of Assam, nay, North –East India. He will remain as an example to the future historians. The Professors Suryya Kumar Bhuyan Commemoration Volume has included as many as sixteen substantial articles on Dr. Bhuyan1. All these articles were written by eminent persons. Off all these articles the first articles i. e, “Professor Dr. Suryya Kumar Bhuyan: A Life-sketch” by Dr. Neog, should be considered as most informative. The second article by Dr. Neog on the bibliography of the writings by Dr, Bhuyan has also become very useful. It was originally prepared by Dr. Bhuyan himself.
