My early years were spent in the campus of the Banaras Hindu University and I recall seeing Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan from a distance on several occasions. These included some of his lectures like the Sunday Gita Lecture and also his chats and discussions with my father who, being a well read academic got on well with him. I may confess to feeling overawed by his impressive personality. But even at a single digit age I could not help being impressed by his scholarly demeanour. One occasion that is engraved in my memory was when he had visited our house for a formal dinner party hosted in honour of a visiting commission chaired by him.

Postcolonial Cosmopolitanisms and their Western Reception Authors: Thieme, John Abstract: "Cosmopolitanism" has a long history as an age-old cultural aspiration that has found a new lease of life in the globalized world of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries; and this essay endeavours to address a range of issues surrounding the varied contemporary uses of the word in literary and cultural contexts, viewing these against its usage in earlier eras.
