Abstract: Perceiving faith and reason as binary opposites rather than as tw·o alternate ways in our quest for truth is more typical of Western thought, where this readily leads to an impassable divide, as between fid eism and rationa lism. 'What has Athens got to do with J erusalem?' asked Tertullian at the beginning of the Christian era wh en confronted with Greek philosophy! But if believers would privilege faith, rationalist would reverse the hierarchy, and never the twain would meet!

The formation of mentalities, as an interaction between economic, political, socio-cultural and religious structures, needs to be understood more clearly. In the Indian context, it may be difficult to clearly distinguish between religious, magical or traditional beliefs, as they occupy complementary domains in tl1e space of social cognition.

Abstract: Vidiadhar Swarajprasad Naipaul in his lecture on 7 December 2001, said, 'The world is always in movement. People have everywhere at sometimes been dispossessed. I suppose was shocked by the discovery in 1967 about my birthplace because I had never had any idea about it.' 1 In fact, this statement of Naipaul shows that in almost all of his works, the persistent theme of identity finds a direct reflection. Half n Life (2001), the latest novel, which is based on the theme of identity of an Indian, who goes to England, for higher education, his trial of adoption of western culture and indulges in sexual activities, visit different African countries make it an interesting piece of work by Naipaul.
