As their old family ties are washed away they, like their historical counterparts, come to view themselves as jahaj-bhais or ship-brothers. An unlikely dynasty is born, which will span continents, races and generations.

It was the most publicised victory for the new wave of Hindu fundamentalism, and history made way for myths old and new. Heres a fresh look at Babur poet, warrior and founder of the Mogul dynasty beyond the mundane realm of praise and blame The Baburnama , the autobiography of Indias first Mogul emperor, Zahiruddin Mohammad Babur (1483 -1530), is one of the true marvels of the medieval world. It belongs with that tiny handful of the worlds literary works that can accurately be described as unique: that is without precedent and without imitators. In the western tradition the military memoir has a pedigree that goes back to Xenophon and Julius Caesar. Babur had no such precedents available: indeed as Wheeler M. Thackston

Extractions: Print Home In This Issue Archive Français ... Links Biography Amitav Ghosh is one of the most important Indian authors writing in English today. Born in Calcutta in 1956, he has published five internationally acclaimed novels, including The Shadow Lines and The Glass Palace , as well as In an Antique Land , a non-fiction book that weaves social and historical research with travel memoir. A widely travelled journalist, Mr. Ghosh reported on the devastation of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands following the tsunami of 26 December 2004. A collection of his essays was recently published under the title Incendiary Circumstances. I think the world has been globalizing for a long time. It is not a new phenomenon, but one that has achieved a new kind of intensity in recent years. The only real barrier to a complete uniformity around the world is not the image but language. Images can be exchanged between cultures, but the domain where globalization has truly been resisted is that of language. We can send e-mails, which can be instantly translated, but that is shallow communication. For any kind of deeper, resonant communication, language is essential. All such communication is always deeply embedded in language.
