Chronology

Stylistically, the latter is often considered to be more complicated. Besides, in the labyrinth of “opinions,” I encountered opinions that were diametrically opposed to one another, and there were even irrelevant statements, when referring to rigidity, chronology, points of view, and the choice between first- and third-person writing, between what to highlight and what to hide, and between whom to present to the reader and whom to maintain absent?

COLONIAL HISTORIOGRAPHY The systematic history writing in the Indian subcontinent started with the coming of the Europeans, who, for their administrative compulsions were required to know the land and its inhabitants whom they were going to rule. But the history produced by them was always imbued with the notions of oriental despotism and self-sufficient village economy, the main characteristic of which was the changelessness from the earliest times to the coming of colonial rule. Hence, all the…

Few schools of thought have had such an impact on the discipline of archaeology as processualism did in the mid twentieth century (Trigger 2006). Processualism, or the new archaeology, revolutionised the way archaeologists thought and worked with its effects lasting until today both directly and indirectly. Even in modern archaeological settings, processual approaches define the discipline with archaeologists generally describing themselves as processual or post-processual. Although this…

Ideologies, which are overvalued, that are project onto the world from ones perspective does not guarantee that that will be the way in which the…

Wong Kar Wai is probably the most innovative and avant-garde director to come out of Hong Kong. As part of the second New Wave of Hong Kong cinema, Wai moved far away from the traditional, Jackie Chan and Shaw Brothers style of films, which focused on action, and explored more substantial themes, icnluding human psyche, politics and the social conditions in Hong Kong.
