Exploration of Portuguese-Bengal Cultural Heritage Through Museological Studies
Exploration of Portuguese-Bengal Cultural Heritage through Museological Studies Dr. Dhriti Ray Department of Museology, University of Calcutta, Kolkata, West Bengal, India Line of Presentation Part I • Brief history of Portuguese in Bengal • Portuguese-Bengal cultural interactions • Present day continuity • A Gap Part II • University of Calcutta • Department of Museology • Museological Studies/Researches • Way Forwards Portuguese and Bengal Brief History • The Portuguese as first European explorer to visit in Bengal was Joao da Silveira in 1518 , couple of decades later of the arrival of Vasco Da Gama at Calicut in 1498. • Bengal was the important area for sugar, saltpeter, indigo and cotton textiles •Portuguese traders began to frequent Bengal for trading and to aid the reigning Nawab of Bengal against an invader, Sher Khan. • A Portuguese captain Tavarez received by Akbar, and granted permission to choose any spot in Bengal to establish trading post. Portuguese settlements in Bengal In Bengal Portuguese had three main trade points • Saptagram: Porto Pequeno or Little Haven • Chittagong: Porto Grande or Great Haven. • Hooghly or Bandel: In 1599 Portuguese constructed a Church of the Basilica of the Holy Rosary, commonly known as Bandel Church. Till today it stands as a memorial to the Portuguese settlement in Bengal. The Moghuls eventually subdued the Portuguese and conquered Chittagong and Hooghly. By the 18th century the Portuguese presence had almost disappeared from Bengal. Portuguese settlements in Bengal Portuguese remains in Bengal • Now, in Bengal there are only a few physical vestiges of the Portuguese presence, a few churches and some ruins. But the Portuguese influence lives on Bengal in other ways— • Few descendents of Luso-Indians (descendants of the offspring of mixed unions between Portuguese and local women) and descendants of Christian converts are living in present Bengal. -

On a Theorem of Pelc and Prikry on the Nonexistence of Invariant
ON A THEOREM BY PELC AND PRIKRY ON THE NON EXISTENCE OF INVARIANT EXTENSIONS OF BOREL MEASURES S.BASU & D.SEN AMS subject classification (2010): 28A05, 28D05, 28D99. Keywords and phrases : Banach-Kuratowski Matrix, diffused admissible functional, space with transformation group, k-small system, upper semicontinuous k-small system, k-additive(weakly k-addtive)algebra admissible with respect to a k-small system, generalized continuum hypothesis. ABSTRACT: There are certain countably generated σ-algebras of sets in the real line which do not admit any non-zero, σ-finite, diffused (or, continuous) measure. Such count- ably generated σ-algebras can be obtained by the use of some special types of infinite matrix known as the Banach-Kuratowski matrix and the same may be used in deriving a generalized version of Pelc and Prikry’s theorem as shown by Kharazishvili. In this paper, using some methods of combinatorial set theory and some modified version of the notion of small sets originally introduced by Rieˇcan, Rieˇcan and Neubrunn, we give an abstract and generalized formulation of Pelc and Prikry’s theorem in spaces with transformation groups. 1 INTRODUCTION Banach [1] (see also [4]) asked if there exist two countably generated σ-algebras on the arXiv:2002.00334v1 [math.FA] 2 Feb 2020 interval [0, 1) such that they both carry probability diffused measures, whereas the σ- algebra generated by their union does not. An answer to this was provided by Grzegorek in [2] using Martin axiom and in [3] (see, also [4]) without using any such additional set theoretic assumptions. In [10], Pelc and Prikry obtained an analogue of the result in translation invariant settings, and, Kharazishvili [7] obtained a generalization of Pelc and Prikry’s result by constructing (under continuum hypothesis) certain Banach-Kuratowski matrix consisting of sets that are almost invariant with respect to the group of all isometric transformations. -

Anthropol Open J. 2018; 3(1): 18-31. doi: 10.17140/ANTPOJ-3-117 ABSTRACT West Bengal, one of the eastern states of India has the oldest museum in the country apart from housing probably the highest number of museums in India. These museums are showcases of the rich cultural heritage of the country and its development during prehistoric and historical times, artistic and innovative skills of the people, colonial connections and national sentiments. In spite of such a glory and apparent prosperity, the museums in the state are facing a number of problems. It is revealed that many of the museums exist only in name being seldom visited by the common people barring a few connoisseur and researchers. These are run by individual effort and financial support leaving little scope for proper maintenance of objects through appropriate methods of conservation and display. The state neither has a definite policy for the museums, nor does it have any up-to-date data on the number of the museums in the state. -

Geo-Economic Analysis of Resource Development in Hooghly District, West Bengal, India
www.ijird.com June, 2016 Vol 5 Issue 7 ISSN 2278 – 0211 (Online) Geo-Economic Analysis of Resource Development in Hooghly District, West Bengal, India Pulak Ghosh Guest Lecturer, Department of Geography Mahitosh Nandy Mahavidyalaya, Jangipara, Hooghly, West Bengal, India Abstract: “Resource are the bases of both security and opulence; they are the foundations of power and wealth. They affect man’s destiny in war and peace alike” (Zimmermann, 1951). Resource development all over the world has, unfortunately, been far away from optimum. Fast expanding human population and the ever-growing demand for food, clothing and shelter have brought about great stress on resources which are mostly finite. The study of resources, their exploitation, utilization and development process is an important aspect for the development of any region. The paper attempts to discuss in this context to get the ideas before undertaking the present study. Keywords: Resource, Opulence, optimum, exploitation 1. Introduction The study of resource development helps to understand the relationship between man and his activities. ̎ The word resource does not refer to a thing or substance but to a function which a thing or substance may perform or to an operation in which it may take part namely the function or operation of attaining a given end such as satisfying a want .̎ (Zimmerman, 1933) People have been manipulating the physical environment to satisfy their needs, this process is called resource development. Typically, resources cannot be consumed in their original form, but rather through resource development they must be processed into more usable commodities. In the words of Mitchell ̎ resource development represents the actual exploitation or use of a resource during the transformation of neutral staff into a commodity or service to serve human needs and aspirations ̎.
