    Ex-Father of the Nation - The New York Times http://www.nytimes.com/2001/04/15/books/ex-father-of-the-nation.htm... April 15, 2001 By Pankaj Mishra GANDHI'S PASSION The Life and Legacy of Mahatma Gandhi. By Stanley Wolpert. Illustrated. 308 pp. New York: Oxford University Press. $27.50. In 1894, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi arrived in South Africa as a young shiftless lawyer from India. He planned to spend a year; he ended up spending two extraordinary decades during which he moved from being the resentful victim of local racial humiliations to the initiator of a wholly new kind of political activism based upon nonviolence. When he finally left South Africa in 1914, after having organized a small and frequently trampled-upon Indian minority into a significant political force, his greatest Afrikaner adversary, Gen. Jan Smuts, was relieved enough to write to a friend, ''The saint has left our shores, I hope, forever.'' More than 30 years later, a few months after India's long-delayed independence in 1947, Gandhi was assassinated by a Hindu Brahmin named Nathuram Godse, who turned out to have been one of the many rationalists exasperated and bewildered by Gandhi. In a remarkably coherent statement in court, Godse explained that he had killed Gandhi in order to cleanse India of such ''old superstitious beliefs'' as the ''power of the soul, the inner voice, the fast, the prayer and the purity of the mind.'' He had felt that nonviolence of the kind Gandhi advocated could only ''lead the nation toward ruin.'' With Gandhi out of the way, Godse said, India would be ''free to follow the course founded on reason which I consider to be necessary for sound nation-building''; it would ''surely be practical, able to retaliate, and would be powerful with armed forces.'' Far from being a lone gunman, Godse spoke for millions of educated Hindus, including some of Gandhi's closest disciples, who felt that the ''father of the nation'' was a burden upon a country that now had to be governed in modern, rational ways.

  • STANLEY WOLPERT. Shameful Flight: the Last Years of the British Empire in India
    BOOK REVIEWS Ⅵ 475 STANLEY WOLPERT. Shameful Flight: The Last Years of the British Empire in India. New York: Oxford University Press, 2006. Pp. 238. $28.00 (cloth). Two decades after Partition, the geographer Aloys Michel sought the insights of the last governor of undivided Punjab, Evan Jenkins, on the arrangements made by the departing British. Jenkins responded: “If you ever delve more deeply into the political and adminis- trative aspects of the Transfer of Power, it is as well to remember that almost everyone concerned has an axe to grind. The truth will no doubt prevail ‘when none cares whether it prevail or not,’ and some historian is able to examine both the official records and the Indian newspapers of the time” (letter to Aloys Michel, dated 27 November 1967; Private Papers of Evan Jenkins, British Library, D807). In Shameful Flight, historian Stanley Wolpert revisits the official record, as presented in the twelve bound volumes entitled The Transfer of Power, 1942–7, and concludes that ten more months of negotiations among the Indian National Congress, the Muslim League, and the British might well have rendered the division of the subcontinent unnecessary. Rarely do historians admit to having been incorrect in their previous analyses, especially after two decades of scholarly research. In Jinnah of Pakistan (Oxford, 1984), Wolpert had credited Muhammad Ali Jinnah with having “conjured” Pakistan “into statehood by the force of his indomitable will” (vii). But in Shameful Flight, Wolpert admits that he had underestimated the “monumental importance of Mountbatten’s negativity towards Jinnah” (10) while doing his research.

  • Multilateralism: Alignment for Peace?
    Lecture 26 HRH The Prince Hassan of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan The Winstanley Theatre Wednesday 26th November 2003 Multilateralism: Alignment for Peace? I am grateful for the opportunity to talk of a great man - a man of vision, full of great ideas. I am sure if Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru were alive, he would powerfully plead for multilateralism in the context of ‘alignment for peace’ just as he promoted non-alignment in the context of the Cold War in the bipolar world in which he lived. Nehru served as a role model for millions around the world, not only as a statesman, but also as a human being and as a humanitarian committed to building a better future for mankind. According to one of his biographers, Stanley Wolpert, “Nehru loved thinking about the future. Planning was one of his passions, for his mind always raced ahead, often flying high above the boring wasteland of the moment... His vision of the future was one world of socialist humanism, in which each person would create or labour to the limits of his or her ability” 1. One of his partners in the promotion of non-alignment, President Nasser of Egypt, opined that he is “not only the exponent of the dreams deeply nestled in the hearts of the people of India. He is also the expression of the human conscience itself” 2. It might interest you to know that the years Nehru spent as a young student in England influenced him a lot in his future thinking. A few months before he started here in Cambridge at Trinity College, he toured Ireland with his cousin Brijlal Nehru.

  • Introduction
    Notes Introduction 1. Salman Rushdie was on born 19 June 1947; he spent his childhood in Bombay but went to England at the age of fourteen to study at Rugby. He enrolled at Cambridge University to read history and afterwards lived mainly in Great Britain, before settling in the USA. After the Ayatollah Khomeini pronounced a fatwa against Rushdie and his novel The Satanic Verses (1988) in February 1989, Rushdie lived in hiding for several years but continued to write, produ- cing The Moor’s Last Sigh among other works. 2. The editions of the novels used are Midnight’s Children (MC) 1995, London: Vintage and The Moor’s Last Sigh (MLS) 1996, London: Vintage, and all page numbers in parentheses refer to these editions. 3. For a view similar to that of Brennan, see Conner 1997: 294–7. Teresa Heffernan likewise argues that Midnight’s Children is ‘from the outset sus- picious of the very model [...] of the modern nation’ (Heffernan 2000: 472); Thompson asserts that Rushdie eventually portrays the Indian nation as a ‘bad myth’ (Thompson 1995: 21). 4. See Bernd Hirsch 2001: 56–77. Heike Hartung focuses on exploring trends in western historiography in her study on the novels by Peter Ackroyd, Graham Swift and Salman Rushdie; she also briefly juxtaposes British and Indian his- toriography by contrasting the representation of the history of the Indian national movement in Percival Spear’s The Oxford History of India (1981) and Sumit Sarkar’s Modern India 1885–1947 (1989), without, however, making use of this material in her discussion of Rushdie’s novels (Hartung 2002: 235–41).

  • A Golden Opportunity for South Asia
    A Golden Opportunity for South Asia Stanley Wolpert Professor of History, University of California at Los Angeles stan, offers South Asia's most powerful nations a golden opportunity for This golden enlightened jubilee change. With year Prime Ministerof India's Inder Kumar independence Gujral now at and of the birth of Paki the helm of New Delhi's polity, and Prime Minister Mian Nawaz Sharif enjoying great popular support in Islamabad, South Asia may at last be ready to end half a century of mortal conflict and enter the next millennium at peace. Fifty years of war and terror, causing chaos and economic dislocation, have been the bitter legacies of a hasty, inept Partition that tore apart British India's breadbasket of Punjab and its most populous province of Bengal in mid August 1947. Deep-rooted religious differences and competing political ambi tions conspired to disrupt British India's stability with periodic communal riots during the last four decades of that Raj. All three of the major parties of the Partition, Britain's Government of India, the Indian National Congress, and the Muslim League, share historic blame for the bloody transfer of power that left more than a million fleeing Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs to die violently in the Partition's immediate aftermath. The end of World War II found Great Britain so sick of imperial respon sibilities and in such deep Sterling debt to India that its new Labour Government could barely wait to extricate itself from South Asia. Prime Minister Attlee sent the King's handsome young cousin, "Dickie" Lord Mountbatten, to New Delhi to put the best British ceremonial face on that final act of the Raj, with pomp and pageantry enough on the eve of Partition for the world's press almost to blot out the Hindu-Muslim-Sikh bloodbath of a civil war that ravaged the subcontinent Summer/Fall 1997 - Volume IV, Issue 2 209 This content downloaded from 128.148.254.57 on Tue, 06 Feb 2018 20:59:33 UTC All use subject to http://about.jstor.org/terms Stanley Wolpert in its wake.

  • BOOK REVIEW Wolpert, Stanley. India and Pakistan : Continued Conflict
    BOOK REVIEW Wolpert, Stanley. India and Pakistan : Continued Conflict or Cooperation? (Los Angeles; University of California Press, 2010), PP.126. Air Commodore Zia ul Haque Shamsi The book ‘India and Pakistan: Continued Conflict or Cooperation?’ is the latest addition to Stanley Wolpert’s works on the issues and personalities of South Asia. The book is divided into ten chapters over 126 pages. Keeping in view his vast experience and expertise of the region, this book appears to be a lucid narrative of the historical facts and incidents of distant and near past, and therefore best be seen as a routine work by an otherwise very accomplished and renowned writer. In his introduction, the author, at the outset, declares Kashmir conflict as deadly, costly and the most dangerous of all prevailing disputes between the two neighboring nuclear states. He earnestly desires a peaceful resolution of the dispute, for which he is making contributions through his writings and organizing conferences with representations from all the concerned stakeholders. First two chapters deal with the historical problems and the first Kashmir war of 1947-48. Wolpert begins with the narrative of the ancient Kashmir from the days of Emperor Asoka, who founded Srinagar as the capital of Kashmir during 269 to 232 BC. The author, very passionately describes the beauty of the Vale, its gardens, eclectic culture and the craftsmanship of its artisans. Islam’s entry into Kashmir in the 11th century started to change the complexion of its predominantly Buddhist population. The author remembers the Rule of Zain-ul-Abidin (1420- 1 70) as the golden period during which Hindus and Buddhists enjoyed equal rights.

  • Interiority, Architecture, and Historical Imagination in Janaki Majumdar's "Family History"
    Interiority, Architecture, and Historical Imagination in Janaki Majumdar's "Family History" ANTOINETTE BURTON My mother grew up in a small Punjabi village not far from Chandigarh. As she chopped onions for the evening meal or scrubbed the shine back onto a steel pan or watched the clouds of curds form in a bowl of slowly setting homemade yoghurt, any action with a rhythm, she would begin a mantra about her ancestral home. She would chant of a three-storeyed flat-roofed house, blinkered with carved wooden shutters around a dust yard where an old-fashioned pump stood under a mango tree. In England, when all my mother's friends made the transition from relatives' spare rooms and furnished lodgings to homes of their own, they all looked for something 'modern.' "It's really up to date, Daljit," one of the Aunties would preen as she gave us the grand tour of her first proper home in England. "Look at the extra flush system . Can opener on the wall . Two minutes' walk to the local amenities . ." But my mother knew what she wanted. When she stepped off the bus in Tollington, she did not see the outside lawy or the apology for a garden or the medieval kitchen, she saw fields and trees, light and space, and a horizon that welcomed the sky which, on a warm night and through squinted eyes, could almost look something like home. Meera Syal, Anita and Me In an age of virtual reality, cyberspace, and migration of global proportions, the very possibility of home is being vigorously contested.

  • Gandhi's Changing Image
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Humanities Commons Gandhi’s Changing Image A Case Study in Perspective and Reputation Young Gandhi thought little of South Africa’s tribal citizens. BOOK REVIEW: Gandhi: The Years that Changed the World (1914-1948) EDITOR’S INTRODUCTION A new biography of Mahatma Gandhi reminds us of how reputations can change, and how valuable it can be to put together competing perspectives. In this brief Introduction, you will see some of the wide range of opinions about this remarkable figure. Then, in Punyashree Panda’s book review of Ramachandra Guha’s new, thousand-page biography Gandhi: The Years that Changed the World (1914-1948), you will see an overview of the singular life that is behind this deeply-felt controversy. Once we get beyond the narrative which he himself was feeding us, we see a more complex man than the traditional image. Gandhi might have been someone whose skills matched the task of winning independence from the British Empire, but not the task of governing a society divided by class, religion and gender. Had he come along ten years earlier or later on that arc of empire, he might have disappeared from history. To my students who find all this relativism to be a challenge, I have this message: no matter where in the modern world you live or what career you choose, you need to understand India. And to understand India, you must know Gandhi. GANDHI THE SAINT Stanley Wolpert in Gandhi’s Passion characterizes Mahatma Gandhi as “a prophet of non-violence, a beacon light to a beleaguered humanity, and an instigator of change through peaceful means.” This revered, humble man was, in the end, betrayed by his closest comrades, and selfish disciples who were interested in power.

The irony of this largely non-violent struggle led by Mahatma Gandhi was that it ended in the most violent and bloodiest partition of the country which claimed the lives of two million civilians and uprooted countless millions in what became the largest forced migration of people the world has ever witnessed.

  • Biography As History: a Personal Reºection His
    Journal of Interdisciplinary History, xl:3 (Winter, 2010), 399–412. BIOGRAPHY AS HISTORY Stanley Wolpert Biography as History: A Personal Reºection His- tory has illuminated every ªeld of human endeavor—science as well as the arts—embracing countless modern disciplines, expand- ing its focus on change over time to comprehend entire nations, cultures, and civilizations, each far more complex than any indi- vidual life. But at its best, biography is the ªnest form of history. The story of individuals, their actions—heroic or tragic—and the impact of their ideas, has always fascinated me. Thus, my doctoral dissertation, “Tilak and Gokhale,” focused on the lives of the two most important leaders of India’s Nationalist Movement prior to Mahatma Gandhi, as prototypes of that movement’s “Revolu- tion” and “Reform” mainstreams.1 tilak and gokhale Lokamanya (Friend of the People) Bal Gan- gadhar Tilak was Maharashtra’s most popular journalist and cul- tural nationalist. His ªrebrand editorials inspired the ªrst Hindu Brahman assassins of Poona (now Pune), where Kesari (Lion), his Marathi-language newspaper was published. To understand Tilak, I had to learn Marathi, reading through the Kesari archives. Mara- thi was the mother tongue of both Tilak and Gokhale, but Gok- hale wrote primarily in English, whereas all of Tilak’s most impor- tant works were in Marathi. Mahatma (Great Soul] Gopal Krishna Gokhale, like Tilak, was a Chitpavan Brahman, born a decade later, learning from his bril- liant guru, Justice Mahadev Govind Ranade, to appreciate the “gifts” and beneªts of English education and British justice. Gok- hale emerged as Tilak’s primary nationalist opponent, repelled by Tilak’s Brahmanic Hindu orthodoxy as well as his violent opposi- tion to all things British.
