About this book
Janaki Bakhle shows how the emergence of an 'Indian' cultural tradition reflected colonial and exclusionary practices, in particular the exclusion of Muslims by the Brahmanic elite - despite the fact that Muslims were the major practitioners of the Indian music that was installed as a 'Hindu' national tradition.
