Calcutta nights (Raater Kolkata) is the real-life story and memoir of the enigmatic Meghnad Gupta , pen name of famed Bengali fiction writer Hemendra Kumar Roy. Translated into English by Rajat Chaudhuri almost a century after the first publication of Raater Kolkata in 1923, Roy reveals to contemporary readers The darkest secrets of an earlier Calcutta. The first two decades of the last century, the backdrop for this book, were politically turbulent times. Those days, Calcutta, the erstwhile capital of British India, was teeming with people from different parts of the country besides Europeans and other foreigners. It was a city of sin, pleasure and suffering. Indians who arrived and settled here mingled with locals, some of them picking up dress, manners and the wanton lifestyles of the Bengali Babu , while others kept their identities intact. All this created a unique cosmopolitan setting, coloured with shades of debauchery, darkness and crime that this first-hand account brilliantly recounts. Written in an age very different from ours, certain views of the author could be jarring for the present times. However, these need to be tempered by the understanding of the sociopolitical contexts and the distance of a century separating us from Meghnad Gupta s Calcutta. Calcutta nights is the hootum pyanchar naksha (published in 1862 and penned by kaliprasanna Sinha) of the early twentieth century, a book that will help anyone understand the contrasts and colours of a unique Indian metropolis.

The world over, resource extraction and an extractive mode of economy have impacted on various population groups, and consequent conflicts over natural resources have damaged earlier modes of resource sharing. The river lands are one such resourceful space where conflicts relating to the development discourse are played out. These once economically-viable lands have become sites of unplanned growth, rampant commercialisation, administrative apathy and the politics of resource extraction. Drawing on intensive field studies and research, Political Ecology of Survival studies how people living along the river banks, and with the rivers , of Bihar, deltaic Bengal and the North-East negotiate nature on the one hand, and the economy, politics and administration on the other. It presents a close look at a landscape that is the battleground of environment, economy, and politics, and offers a fresh look at how best to preserve river systems so as to continue with the life and livelihood of humankind. The communities studied here, heavily dependent on natural resources and hailing from the lowest rungs of society, are forced to negotiate environmental and developmental challenges and related displacements and migration. The essays explore, among others, the problem of floods and erosion in the Brahmaputra valley, resource crises, resource sharing, large scale displacements of population groups in deltaic Bengal and the pressing problem of migration around Barak river in the North-East. This unique collection will interest students and scholars of migration studies, environmental studies, political science and anthropology. It will also be invaluable for development activists, journalists, policymakers and NGOs working in the field. (jacket).

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Betrayal reshaped a kingdom - and gave birth to an empire."An enthralling story of nationalism filled with historical touches and lush details." - Kirkus ReviewsIn the summer of 1757, Bengal - jewel of the East - stands on a precipice. The East India Company, once mere merchants, now manoeuvre to unseat a dynasty. The fiery young Nawab Siraj ud-Daulah is hemmed in by betrayal. Around him, a banker pulls the strings behind the throne. A nobleman, torn between loyalty and survival, makes a fateful choice. A Company soldier begins to doubt the masters he serves. And the son of an aristocrat finds himself at the head of a peasant revolt.Their paths converge in a time of shifting power and rising rebellion, as the fury of a devastated land meets the appetite of foreign merchants. Every decision becomes a wager-and every betrayal, a reckoning.A vivid portrait of ambition, audacity, betrayal and resistance, based on real events and grounded in meticulous research, The Traitor's Bargain brings to life one of the most consequential turning points in Indian history.Recognised globally as one of the most respected literary review platforms, Kirkus praised the novel's lyrical prose, immersive realism, and emotional power-calling it both sweeping in scope and intimate in human truth.
