Omschrijving

""Is India Civilized? Essays On Indian Culture"" is a book written by John Woodroffe and published in 1922. The book is a collection of essays that explore various aspects of Indian culture and society. Woodroffe, a British scholar and advocate for Indian culture, examines topics such as religion, philosophy, literature, art, and social customs.In the book, Woodroffe argues that India has a rich and sophisticated culture that is often misunderstood by Westerners. He explores the complexities of Hinduism, Buddhism, and other Indian religions, and emphasizes their philosophical and spiritual depth. He also discusses the importance of Indian literature, including the Vedas, the Upanishads, and the Mahabharata, in shaping Indian culture.Furthermore, Woodroffe delves into the role of women in Indian society, and critiques the Western perception of Indian women as oppressed and subservient. He argues that Indian women have traditionally held positions of power and influence, and that their contributions to Indian culture have been undervalued.Overall, ""Is India Civilized? Essays On Indian Culture"" is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of Indian culture and society. It challenges Western stereotypes and offers a nuanced understanding of India's rich history and traditions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
