"A History of Civilization in Ancient India, Rationalistic Age: Based on Sanskrit Literature" by Romesh Chunder Dutt, published in 1889, is a comprehensive two-volume exploration. The frist Volume examines Indo-Aryan society, literature, and religious practices across the Vedical, Epic, and Rationalistic periods. It discusses wars, social structures, and advancements in law and astronomy. The Rationalistic period is analyzed for its literature, Hindu expansion, and Upanishadic doctrines, alongside the teachings of Gautama Buddha and the history of Buddhism and Jainism. The second Volume delves into the Buddhist and Puranic periods, discussing societal aspects, linguistic developments, and advancements in fields like astronomy and medicine. It chronicles India's evolution through religious, literary, and scientific achievements from ancient to modern times.

Romesh Chunder Dutt (1848–1909), an Indian civil servant and economic historian, advocated for Indian economic nationalism. He qualified for the Indian Civil Service in 1869, becoming the first Indian to reach the rank of divisional commissioner. He played a significant role in the Indian National Congress and contributed to Bengali literature, notably with "The Literature of Bengal." Dutt's economic history thesis focused on India's de-industrialization under British rule, earning him recognition and shaping nationalist discourse.
