2024 || Hardcover || Pui Yee Choong || Leiden University Press

India after World History

Literature, Comparison, and Approaches to Globalization

2022 || Hardcover || Neilesh Bose || Leiden University Press

In the twenty-first century, terms such as globalization, global, and world function as key words at the cusp of new frontiers in both historical writing and literary criticism.
