Book - Imagining India. Oxford, Basil Blackwell, 1990; paperback, March1992.
He is particularly interested in people's efforts to construct paradises or utopias on earth in and beside their everyday lives.These involve practices ranging from "rituals" in medieval ortraditional societies to the "media" in modern ones and, especiallyin India, the world of cinema. The problems of how people have situated and resituated these differing practices in a "developing" country like India bring together my historical, anthropological, and Indological interests.
