    The Location of Culture ‘The work being done in my field, African and African-American Studies, is unimaginably richer because of Homi Bhabha’s stunning contribution to literary, historical, and cultural studies. The breadth and depth of his analysis, and the razor precision of his writing, push us all to be better, more innovative scholars, and I thank him for it.’ Henry Louis Gates, JR ‘The Location of Culture has been extraordinarily fertile for work in a variety of fields: literature, geography, architecture, politics among them. Homi Bhabha is at once radical and subtle in his method of argument and his insights have been fundamental to the flourishing of post-colonial studies.’ Gillian Beer, University of Cambridge ‘The Location of Culture is an exuberantly intelligent voyage of dis- covery and disorientation. Supple, subtle, and unafraid, its power lies in its remarkable openness to all that is challenging and unsettling in the contemporary world.’ Stephen Greenblatt, Harvard University ‘Bhabha is that rare thing, a reader of enormous subtlety and wit, a theorist of uncommon power. His work is a landmark in the exchange between ages, genres and cultures; the colonial, post-colonial, mod- ernist and postmodern.’ Edward Said ‘Homi Bhabha is one of that small group occupying the front ranks of literary and cultural theoretical thought. Any serious discussion of post-colonial/postmodern scholarship is inconceivable without refer- encing Mr Bhabha.’ Toni Morrison '\ L £ ~ () ~~ ct:o S Qrn r- • m • () ~ CI) ( m V ..q S 5 \ Routledge Classics contains the very best of Routledge publishing over the past century or so, books that have, by popular consent, become established as classics in their field.

Film encompasses all of these disciplines, and it was that unique environment that taught me to make films that were visually compelling. Of the films that I’ve subsequently made, all of them somehow link back to what I learnt at the RCA.’ Asif Kapadia (MA Film & Television, 1997) Asif Kapadia is an Academy Award and four time Bafta-winning writer/director.

    IRRFAN AND I Written by Vishal BhardwajTimes Delhi INT. MY HOME - DAY SUPER: 29TH APRIL 2020 It’s lockdown in Mumbai. I have been working from home for the past one month. The phone rings. It flashes M.P’s name on the screen. It gives me tremors. M.P is supposed to be my informer in Irrfan’s agency. I let the phone ring for a while and then take the call fearing the worst. A beat. M.P. He has started improving. Man, this guy is a hell of a fighter. Doctors are hopeful that he will bounce back. I take a deep breath and cut the line. LITTLE LATER I argue with Rekha for serving me less PANEER in last night’s dinner. I complain to her of being biased when it comes to choosing between me and Aasmaan. My phone beeps. I check my WhatsApp messenger (still bickering with Rekha). It’s a message from a friend from America. It reads - ‘Saddened to hear about Irrfan Khan’. I check my Twitter (Still squabbling fiercely with Rekha) to verify the authenticity of it. No news. I rule out the possibility. Times I bring myself to hear what Rekha is saying with tears in her eyes. REKHA What kind of pettiness is this? The phone rings again. It’s M.P once more. I pick it up hurriedly this time. There are sobs on the other side. A bomb explodesDelhi in my heart. CUT TO: EXT. ROAD TO GRAVEYARD - DAY Face masked with a N95 mask and hands covered with a pair of surgical gloves, I travel in my car on the deserted road leading to the Muslim cemetery.
