Day and night I had felt a voracious hole spreading in the dead centre of my belly, opening its maw wider and wider. To come to its full circumference it was pushing at my ribs. It would rest only after crushing my bones.

Most historians from countries bequeathed with a heavy colonial cultural legacy have had to struggle to understand the present by mapping the historically constituted locations of the past. However, we cannot talk about the distant past without referring to our· essential and immediate history of the last two hundred years, for ancient India was a contesting ground for some of the earliest endeavours by both the imperialists and the nationalists.
