Answer:
Ananya Vajpeyi’s Righteous Republic is a unique addition to the discourse around the themes of India’s negotiation with its colonial past and its present political framework. Hers is an original quest that, instead of focusing on India’s struggle to gain sovereignty, tries to understand the nature of the Indian national self — the ‘ swa’ in ‘ swaraj’— whose independence was being sought. She does this by examining the intellectual-imaginative negotiations with a “welter of Indian traditions” by five extraordinary men of early modern India who, in her reckoning, were the key figures in shaping the country’s vision of itself, its past and its postcolonial future. These are M.K. Gandhi, Rabindranath Tagore, Abanindranath Tagore, Jawaharlal Nehru and Bhimrao Ambedkar. Following Alasdair MacIntyre’s theorisation of “texts as the building blocks of tradition” the book explores the unique ways in which each of these stalwarts conceived the idea of India through their re-interpretations, in the light of their Western-educated sensibilities, of traditional Indian “texts”, literary, religious, artistic and architectural, that “mediated on self, sovereignty, and their ligature.”
