1. 1. Nehru And The Spirit Of India

   

   An essayistic meditation on Jawaharlal Nehru’s political imagination and moral sensibility, this work explores how his humanism, secularism, scientific temper, and democratic socialist ideals were shaped by personal experience, reading, and history. Interweaving close readings of his speeches, letters, and The Discovery of India with literary and philosophical reflections, it examines the tensions in his thought—between nation and cosmopolis, reason and feeling, power and ethics. Rejecting both hagiography and denunciation, it argues for recovering a plural, dialogic spirit as a living resource against the pressures of majoritarian nationalism in contemporary India.
