This volume is the first in a series, bringing to readers the latest and most pertinent scholarship in Historiography. Historiography in itself as a subject of study has rarely found its place in the syllabi of Indian universities, while knowledge of Historiography is often taken for granted when a scholar plunges into research. In an attempt to address this lacuna, the Indian Council of Historical Research (ICHR) has planned a series of volumes on Historiography comprising articles by subject specialists commissioned by the ICHR. The ten essays herein will complement the pedagogical and scholarly work of scholars all across the historical academe in India.

Sabyasachi Bhattacharya is Chairman, Indian Council of Historical Research, New Delhi. Professor Bhattacharya was former Professor of History, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi and Vice-Chancellor, Visva-Bharati University, Santiniketan.
