Description

Product Description Age of Entanglement explores the patterns of connection linking German and Indian intellectuals from the nineteenth century to the years after the Second World War. Kris Manjapra traces the intersecting ideas and careers of philologists, physicists, poets, economists, and others who shared ideas, formed networks, and studied one another's worlds. Moving beyond well-rehearsed critiques of colonialism, this study recasts modern intellectual history in terms of the knotted intellectual itineraries of seeming strangers. Collaborations in the sciences, arts, and humanities produced extraordinary meetings of German and Indian minds. Meghnad Saha met Albert Einstein, Stella Kramrisch brought the Bauhaus to Calcutta, and Girindrasekhar Bose began a correspondence with Sigmund Freud. Rabindranath Tagore traveled to Germany to recruit scholars for a new university, and Himanshu Rai worked with Franz Osten to establish movie studios in Bombay. These interactions, Manjapra argues, evinced shared responses to the hegemony of the British empire. Germans and Indians hoped to find in one another the tools needed to disrupt an Anglocentric world order. As Manjapra demonstrates, transnational encounters are not inherently progressive. From Orientalism to Aryanism to scientism, German-Indian entanglements were neither necessarily liberal nor conventionally cosmopolitan, often characterized as much by manipulation as by genuine cooperation. Review Stimmen zur englischsprachigen Originalausgabe: Ein mutiges und faszinierendes Werk. Manjapra sprengt entschlossen und elegant den konventionellen Rahmen und schreibt eine wahrhaft globale Geschichte des intellektuellen Austauschs zwischen Deutschland und Indien. Zeitalter der Verflechtungen ist eine ambitionierte und überzeugende Darstellung der Art und Weise, wie beide Seiten mit den Strukturen und der Politik des britischen Empire verbunden waren - und durch sie sowohl begünstigt als auch eingeengt wurden. Sebastian Conrad, Freie Universität Berlin Ein erstklassiges Werk der globalen Geistesgeschichte, das weit über die Grenzen Europas und des britischen Empire hinausgeht. Manjapra zeigt, dass die Vorstellungskraft deutscher Denker nie auf Europa beschränkt war, und dass indische Intellektuelle eine globale Vision besaßen, die die Grenzen des Empire hinter sich ließ. Zeitalter der Verflechtungen ebnet den Weg für eine neue Art der Ideengeschichte. Sunil Amrith, Yale University [...] eine außerordentlich bemerkenswerte Leistung [...] Manjapra arbeitet unzählige Quellen, reichliches Archivmaterial und diverse Forschungsfelder erschöpfend in eine detaillierte und attraktive Darstellung ein. Die Sprache und der Stil sind glänzend und anregend. Und er kombiniert dazu gekonnt analytische Kategorien und Methoden aus der postkoloniale Theorie, Subaltern Studies, Entangled History und Ideengeschichte. Timothy Goering in H-Soz-u-Kult 04.07.2014 Age of Entanglement is a landmark publication. it demonstrates both how much can be gained by 'de-centring' familiar histories and adopting new perspectives, and that the writing of a sophisticated and ambitious piece of transcultural intellectual history in the longue durée does not necessarily imply superficiality, but can be combined with sound empirical grounding and a stupendous density of documentation. There is no doubt that Kris Manjapra has written a book to be cherished. Harald Fischer-Tiné in DHIL Bulletin Vol. XXXVII (2015), 2, S. 83-89 About the Author Kris Manjapra, Assistant Professor of History, Tufts University, Boston, USA.
