Warrior Ascetics and Indian Empires


Free Download William R. Pinch, "Warrior Ascetics and Indian Empires "
English | ISBN: 0521851688 | 2006 | 294 pages | PDF | 23 MB
Many people assume, largely because of Gandhi’s legacy, that Hinduism is a religion of non-violence. In this 2006 book William R. Pinch shows just how wrong this assumption is. Using the life of Anupgiri Gosain, a Hindu ascetic who lived at the end of the eighteenth century, he demonstrates that Hindu warrior ascetics were an important component of the South Asian military labor market in the medieval and early modern Indian past, and crucial to the rise of British imperialism. Today, they occupy a prominent place in modern Indian imaginations, ironically as romantic defenders of a Hindu India against foreign invasion, even though they are almost totally absent from Indian history. William R. Pinch’s innovative and gloriously composed book sets out to piece together the story of the rise and demise of warrior asceticism in India from the 1500s to the present. It will appeal to students of religion and historians of empire.

Tea Plantation Workers of Assam and the Indian National Movement, 1921-1947 studies the various phases of workers’ politics in the tea plantations of Assam and deliberates upon the role of nationalist leaders in moulding the fate of these workers. The struggles of the tea plantation workers were a manifestation of the strength of their protests against the varied forms of exploitations of the tea planters. Their struggle occurred at the time of the formation of the indigenous bourgeoisie and continued despite the nationalist leadership not providing sufficient support to them. There remained a deep incongruity between the interests of the workers and the interests of the nationalist leadership which largely determined the fate of the material conditions of the labourers in deeper aspects.
