Description

George Abraham Grierson's Linguistic Survey of India stands as one of the most comprehensive sources on South Asian languages, and this book provides the first detailed examination of this landmark work. It explores how the Survey collaborated with Indian activists to consolidate regional languages across India, offering a fresh perspective on linguistic identity in the subcontinent. By positioning India as a unified linguistic region, the Survey challenged the colonial state's approach, which relied on religious and caste divisions to understand Indian society. This analysis reveals how many of the Survey's narratives transcend its strictly linguistic framework, demonstrating the complex relationship between language documentation and regional consolidation in colonial India.
