Negotiating Languages Urdu, Hindi, and the Definition of Modern South Asia WALTER N. HAKALA
SOUTH ASIA ACROSS THE DISCIPLINES
Hardcover with dustjacket
2016
Columbia University Press
Prior to the nineteenth century, South Asian dictionaries, glossaries, and vocabularies reflected a hierarchical vision of nature and human society. By the turn of the twentieth century, the modern dictionary had democratized and politicized language. Compiled "scientifically" through "historical principles," the modern dictionary became a concrete symbol of a nation's arrival on the world stage.
Following this phenomenon from the late seventeenth century to the present, Negotiating Languages casts lexicographers as key figures in the political realignment of South Asia under British rule and in the years after independence. Their dictionaries document how a single, mutually intelligible language evolved into two competing registers—Urdu and Hindi—and became associated with contrasting religious and nationalist goals. Each chapter in this volume focuses on a key lexicographical work and its fateful political consequences. Recovering texts by overlooked and even denigrated authors, Negotiating Languages provides insight into the forces that turned intimate speech into a potent nationalist politics, intensifying the passions that partitioned the Indian subcontinent.
Walter Hakala is associate professor of South Asian languages and literature at the University at Buffalo, SUNY. His work has been published in the Indian Economic and Social History Review, Eighteenth Century Studies, Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society, and Modern Asian Studies. He was born in New Delhi, India and spent his childhood in India, Pakistan, and Morocco before settling in the United States.

My Autobiography - Murray Walker - Unless I'm Very Much Mistaken.
Murray Walker is a national institution. The
turbo-tongued motor-racing commentator who played a key role in the shaping of
Formula One's televised image over the past three decades, Murray's unique
brand of boyish enthusiasm made even the dullest race sound like an unmissable
thriller. There was no one remotely like him on television -- and the public
loved him.
Ever since his first stint at the microphone in
1949 at the British Grand Prix, Murray has entertained us with his commentaries
on car and motorcycle racing and in particular Formula One. In his
autobiography, he describes his relationship with many of the key personalities
of his era, from Geoff Duke to Mike Hailwood, Stirling Moss to John Surtees,
Nigel Mansell to Ayrton Senna, and Damon Hill to current world champion Michael
Schumacher.
He also recalls his celebrated commentary
partnerships, initially with the inimitable James Hunt and later with martin
Brundle, his surprise move from the BBC to ITV, and looks at how the sport has
evolved from its humble beginnings to today's multi-billion pound industry.
Away from the pit lane, he talks about his early
personal life and the influence of his father Graham, about his experiences in
the war with the Royal Scots Greys, and later his fascinating and highly
successful career as an advertising executive handling major blue-chip
companies such as Esso and Mars.
In the drama-filled world of Formula
One, Murray Walker's story is a refreshingly candid and straight-talking
account of a sport he adores and which every one of his fans across the world
should read. F1
