Bal Gangadhar Tilak was a frontline fighter, intimately involved with the Indian national movement. This book explores Tilak's engagements, not just with the Indian national movement, but also the nuanced diversities associated with a context that preceded the mass movements. Based on a variety of sources, the contributors attempt to historicize a nationalist icon. In the process, the reader is presented with a holistic picture of a leading nationalist personality, including his contradictions and ambiguities. In this sense, the different contributions in this book question the 'received wisdom' associated with Tilak. Bal Gangadhar Tilak: Popular Readings would be of use to those interested in the Indian national movement and the manner in which it intersected with a range of social, cultural and political issues. The 'non-specialist' reader, too, will be interested in the way in which the book makes both Tilak and his context accessible.

Indian astronomy was one of the first subjects which attracted the attention of Western scholars after the existence of Sanskrit literature became known to them in the last quarter of the 18th century. There are a number of learned and critical works written by Indologists like William Jones, Colebrooke, Davies, Bailey, Bentley, Whitney, Jacobi, Plunkett, Biot and many more. Some of these works were highly critical of the Indian system and led to several controversies, and some explored the depth and antiquity of the system followed in India quite brilliantly and in an unbiased manner. This small treatise attempts to put things in proper perspective, edevouring to sum up the whole controversy, thus recasting, revising, enlarging, and bringing upto date, the theories which were readily accepted by scholars from all parts of the world.

“स्व राज हमारा जन्मसिद्ध अधिकार है’ का नारा देनेवाले लोकमान्य बाल गंगाधर तिलक का जन्म 23 जुलाई, 1856 को महाराष्ट्र के रत्नागिरि नामक स्थान पर हुआ था। उनके पिता गंगाधर राव संस्कृत और व्याकरण के विद्वान् थे। वे रत्नागिरि की मराठी शाला के प्रधानाचार्य थे। माता-पिता ने बड़े लाड़-प्यार से बालक गंगाधर का लालन-पालन किया। कुछ बड़ा होने पर उन्हें पढ़ने के लिए रत्नागिरि की प्राइमरी पाठशाला में भेजा गया। वे मन लगाकर पढ़ाई करने लगे। तिलक बचपन से ही निर्भीक और साहसी थे। स्वाभिमान की भावना तो उनमें कूट- कूटकर भरी हुई थी। ये सब गुण उन्हें अपने पिता से विरासत में मिले थे।
