A compilation of significant papers on several urgent and contentious areas of debates in postmodernism, post-colonial studies, culture, politics and literature. The articles included in this volume explore and interrogate basic issues concerning nation and nationalism, critical theory and ‘post’ disciplines, diasporic cultural formations, and the literary practices that underline the new dialectic and sites of writing, studies in literature that problematise the very notion of and context of literary idiom in its difference and alterity, after the sweeping shifts in economic, geographical, cultural and historical fields in the last century. Manjit Inder Singh’s book promises a rich intellectual fare for students, researchers and academics, not only in literature and critical disciplines, but in allied and interdisciplinary studies as well.
THE book is surely going to pique your interest in wine, particularly in Indian wine. This book aims to contribute to the wider awareness of high-quality Indian wines, even as it guides the Indian consumer through all the brands, domestic and imported, available in the Indian market. The Complete Indian Wine Guide provides a comprehensive exposition of all domestic wines. Every single wine made and sold in India is tasted and evaluated. The introduction gives a brief history of the presence of wine in India, up to the current wine boom, and offers some predictions with respect to the optimistic outlook for the future of Indian wines. Part one includes how to taste wine and debunks certain myths about wine that scare away beginners. Also given is wine and food pairing, and other similar information. There is thorough instruction on wine basics such as storage, serving, glasses and so on. The main part of the book is what makes it unique. There are so many wine books but none for the Indians. Every single type of wine currently made and sold in India is tasted and reviewed, giving a description and ultimately an evaluation that will help consumers select wines that sound the best for them. The book covers the 2005, 2004 and 2003 vintages, and of course all non-vintage wines. The third part presents an overview of international wines in general, and then focuses primarily on international wines regularly available on the Indian market. The appendices are designed to help the beginners to wine appreciation. There is a glosasary of technical terms used in the book and a pronounciation guide for unfamiliar foreign words and phrases. |
