From shekhar at MIT.EDU Tue May 20 12:32:20 2008 From: shekhar at MIT.EDU (Shekhar Krishnan) Date: Tue, 20 May 2008 12:32:20 -0400 Subject: [Urban South Asia] Next Wendesday Meet 2.30-4.30 p.m. Message-ID: <1211301140.11500.88.camel@wadalaroad> Dear All: ??We will meet for our final session this semester next WEDNESDAY 28 May from 2.30 to 4.30 p.m. in MIT E51-185 to discuss Janaki Nair's The Promise of the Metropolis: Bangalore's Twentieth Century. The text is up at http://bombayology.net Please note the time change to the afternoon, as I have to catch a flight to DC that evening and several have indicated that a late lunch meeting suits them. If you haven't already done so, please let me know if you plan to come so I can order food accordingly. Also note on the site that we have added supplementary texts to the post on Representing Calcutta, in response to the discussion of the work of Sudipta Kaviraj and Dipesh Chakrabatrty on public space in Bengal, which are linked as PDFs. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for supplementary texts to read with Janaki Nair's book on Bangalore and I will try to find and digitize them before next week's meeting. See you then.
