| history of uttarakhand in english: A Place in the World , 2021-10-01 Local histories, written and published by non-academic historians, constitute a rapidly expanding genre in contemporary non-Western societies. However, academic historians and anthropologists usually take little notice of them. This volume takes a comparative look at local historical writing. Thirteen case studies, set in seven different countries of sub-Saharan Africa, India and Nepal, examine the authors, their books and their audiences. From different perspectives, they analyse the genre's intellectual roots, its relationship to oral historical narratives, and its relevance and impact in local and wider arenas. Local histories, it turns out, pursue a variety of agendas. They (re)construct local and communal identities affected by rapid social change. Often, they (re)write history as part of cultural and political struggles. Openly or implicitly, all of them place local communities on the map of the world at large. |

| history of uttarakhand in english: Rage of the River Hr̥dayeśa Jośī, 2016 On 17 June 2013, a normally calm Mandakini came crashing down from the hills in Uttarakhand and destroyed everything in its path: houses, bridges, dams and the town of Kedarnath. Thousands of people perished and lakhs lost their livelihood. Three years after the disaster, stories from the valley-of pain and sorrow, the state government's indifference and the corporate goof-ups, and the courage and heroism shown by the locals in the face of an absolute catastrophe-still remain largely unheard of. While the government continues to remain in denial and chooses to ignore the environmental issues in Uttarakhand, the ravaged Kedarnath valley continues to haunt us-though the temple has been restored, given its religious importance and centrality to the local economy. NDTV journalist Hridayesh Joshi covered the floods in 2013, exposing the government's apathy and inefficiency. He was the first journalist to reach Kedarnath after the disaster and brought to light the stories from the most-remote parts of the state: areas cut off from the rest of the world. Woven into this haunting narrative is also the remarkable history of the ordinary people's struggle to save the state's ecology. Rage of the River is a riveting commentary on the socio-environmental landscape of Uttarakhand and is filled with vivid imagery of the calamity. |

| history of uttarakhand in english: My Trek through Uttarkhand Swami Chinmayananda, 2018-03-12 A spiritual aspirant's journey is sprinkled with many battles overcoming mind over matter through different sādhanās (spiritual practices). One such sādhanā is going on a pilgrimage, which provides challenges for the body, mind and intellect. In 1948, a young sādhaka embarked on a rare pilgrimage of discovery through the splendour of Uttarakhand. Often going without food, sleeping where he puts his bundle down for the night, lashed by the cold northern wind, he established a deep communion with nature. The memoir penned by the sādhaka at the end of each long treacherous day, is interspersed with humour, sketches and poetry inspired by the majestic surroundings. This young sādhaka was Swami Chinmayananda. My Trek through Uttarakhanda is personal and delectable narrative of Pujya Gurudev, Swami Chinmayananda’s trek across the Himalayan terrain. |
| history of uttarakhand in english: City of My Heart , 2018-09-18 Dilli, Hindustan ka Dil... Through nuanced translations of four Urdu narratives spanning the period of turmoil that led to the Revolt of 1857, and culminated in the fall of the Mughal Empire, this compelling volume reveals the tragic and affecting story of a royalty in decline. Vividly documenting the twilight years of not just a historical era but also an entire way of life, these first-hand accounts – gleaned from princes and paupers alike – provide rare insight into how the royals and their subjects experienced life on either side of the cataclysm. Tales of suffering describe the perfidy of the British and the plight of the last royals as they are disbanded and pushed into dire poverty; livelier accounts of fealty and treachery detail palace intrigues; and nostalgic reminiscences recreate the days of past glory and communal comity – of feasting and festivals, and shared faith and devotion. An intimate chronicle of a crucial era in India’s history, City of My Heart is the saga of a changing city and a people experiencing the end of life as they know it. |
| history of uttarakhand in english: My India Jim Corbett, 2024-11-18 My India is Jim Corbett's love letter to the country he called home, a place that shaped his life and work as a hunter, naturalist, and conservationist. In this beautiful collection of essays, Corbett offers his personal reflections on the people, culture, history, and landscapes of India, weaving together anecdotes from his travels with observations on the country's varied terrain-from the lush jungles of Kumaon to the bustling streets of Delhi. Corbett's writing reflects his profound respect for India's wildlife and natural beauty, as well as its rich and diverse heritage. Throughout the book, he shares his experiences with the local people, from the villagers who called him to help deal with dangerous animals to the farmers who lived in harmony with the land. His writings are imbued with nostalgia for a disappearing way of life, one that balances human existence with the natural world in a way that is increasingly rare. My India is a celebration of a country that deeply influenced Corbett's work, and his heartfelt portrayal of India's spirit resonates with anyone who has ever fallen in love with the land, its people, and its culture. |

| history of uttarakhand in english: God of Justice William S Sax, 2009 God of Justice deals with ritual healing in the Central Himalayas of north India, focusing on the cult of Bhairav, a local deity associated with the lowest castes, who are frequently victims of social injustice. When they are exploited or abused they often turn to Bhairav for justice, beseeching him to afflict their oppressors with disease and misfortune. In order to bring their suffering to an end, the oppressors must make amends with their victims and worship Bhairav together with them. Much of the book focuses on the tension between the high moral value placed on family unity on the one hand, and the inevitable conflicts within it on the other. This highly readable book describes the author's own experiences in the field as well as ritual healing practices such as divination, sacrifice, and exorcism. |
