500			_aThis edition, an anthology of short stories, memoirs and critical essays, is chiefly designed for the undergraduate student who chooses to study the Delhi University’s optional paper on India’s Partition of 1947. The volume brings together the prescribed readings as well as the background texts that constitute the paper. Critical essays from scholars, like Muhammad Umer Memon, Sukeshi Kamra, Arjun Mahey, and Debjani Sengupta, provide valuable insights into the historical contexts of the Partition as well as the literature around the event. The 1947 Partition of India: An Anthology of Writings offers a tiny glimpse into one of the most traumatic moments of our shared history in the subcontinent through literatures of various Indian languages. The volume incorporates material that offers a new and advanced assessment on the Partition which enables readers to contemplate the long shadows of 1947 on our contemporary realities, thereby catering to the needs of both lay readers and students.
