An Intellectual And Institutional Journey

The volume is a tribute to the memory of Mushirul Hasan, one of the most eminent academics and institution-builders of modern India. It begins with Mushir’s own recollections of his Aligarh years, his Presidential Address to the Modern India Section of the Indian History Congress on `Partition Narratives’ and his unpublished 2014 lecture on Jawaharlal Nehru. The collection has traced aspects of Mushir’s personality, writing and achievement, adding nuance and depth to a public record.
