B.D. Chattopadhyaya: The Man Who Shaped Our Conception of Early Medieval India
Perhaps the secret to the historian's tremendous magnitude of work was embedded in his deep-rooted commitment to the idea of plurality as an alternative to singular or monolithic approaches to perceiving India's past.

Three great living Historians of our time talking about their views and personal experiences of independence and partition. All of them were young in 1947 and have some memories of their childhood which they are sharing...
Now we have this last decade when the remaining of the pre Independence generation will pass away. These people are our link to our past, fading away very quickly. It's always exhilarating to listen to them who have seen 1940s and 1950s.
We may not agree with all their perspectives and arguments, and yet we can try to listen to their views.

The meaning of the term Subaltern is explained in very lucid language by an eminent historian Prof Partha Chatterjee in 2 mins.
We often read about Subaltern History in Indian history and esp in Modern India but rarely are we told the meaning of the word.
