Hardcover. Condizione: New. India, a stately and sonorous word! To the thoughtful scholar it suggests distance, vastness, wealth, scenic and historic charms, ancient art, barbaric wealth, as well as potential factors of national greatness. Sir Edwin Arnold has not unduly exalted the importance of a visit of India in any liberal education. No thinker can be in an intellectual exile here. The student of language, history, ancient philosophy, or antique civilization finds a treasure house in the India of the past.
