  • Western and Eastern Ur-Topias: Communities and Nostalgia
    5 Western and Eastern Ur-Topias: Communities and Nostalgia Anjan Sen1 and Asun López-Varela2 1National Tagore Scholar, 2Universidad Complutense Madrid, 1India 2Spain 1. Introduction In Western civilization, the prefix ‘Ur’ is often used as metaphor to refer to a primitive, seminal, or prototypical example of an artistic representation, concept or idea. The associations of the word can be traced back to Sumerian sources and the origins of Indo- European civilization. Ur is considered by many to be the city of Ur-Kasdim mentioned in the Book of Genesis as the birthplace of the patriarch Abram (Abraham). The existence of cities can be traced back in antiquity to the important role of communities such as Memphis, Babylon, Thebes, Athens, Sparta, Mohenjodaro or Anuradhapura, among others. Rome was perhaps the first city to reach a population of one million around the time of Christ. Only in 1800 did London become the second city to reach this size. At that time only two percent of the world’s population was urbanized. Communities are not just defined in political and economic terms: cultural issues, perceptions, and foci contribute to give identity to the community, whether a village, a city, or a nation. Mirrors of cultural change, artistic representations offer insights into the way humans have transformed their living spaces. Works by artists, poets, novelists, visual artists, etc., helps unveil the distinctiveness in the way communities are viewed. The term mindscape, used to refer to human communities, refers to structures for thinking about human spaces built on conceptualisations of their physical landscape, whether urban or rural, and more recently virtual, as well as on their images as transported through cultural representation, memory, and imagination in different media formats.

Summer is when the much- awaited Summer Course in Indian Culture and Spiri- tuality takes place, crowned of course by the memora- ble Divine Discourses of Bhagavan Baba.
