The Anarchy: The Relentless Rise of the East India Company and The Last Mughal: The Fall of Delhi, 1857 are among the best history books written by Dalrymple. Would love to read more books authored by him.
From interest in archeology in Mesopotamia William Dalymple has metamorphosed to a wonderful and in - depth writer of Indian History from its ancient roots to towards.
"Don't get lost in the details!" says Thapar when William talks about his relative/ancestor. Thapar, we are more interested in listening to William's 'ramblings' than your interview. Also loved how William makes a point against Marxist historians of India (just before the outburst above). That must have bothered Karan Thapar, considering how he is related to the grandmother of all Marxist historians, Romila Thapar. Also funny to see some comments here cautioning people about "Hindu hypernationalism". Classic example of throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Funniest, though, is someone saying that a lot of it is "conjecture". If anything, William is being conservative about India's influence. Crazy to see such reactions.
Please buy the book Dalrymple pointed out that to really understand the of Indian ancient history you too must read foot notes, to illuminate it properly.
Feel bad for those who came here looking for reference aircraft’s & nuclear weapon in ancient India, this is the same type of academic and boring history which you failed in high school 😂
Karan Thapar ji, you are interviewing William Dalrymple. I have a request for you, please consider it as a request, please send it to William Dalrymple ji, it will be a great favour of yours. The question is why the Hindi translation of William Dalrymple ji's books is not available. When will the Hindi translation of William Dalrymple ji's books be available for Hindi readers? If you send this message to William Dalrymple ji, it will be a great favour of yours. Especially for the Hindi readers who read books only in Hindi. Thank you very much.
करण थापर जी, आप विलियम डेलरिम्पल का इंटरव्यू ले रहे हैं। आपसे एक निवेदन है, कृपया इसे निवेदन समझकर विलियम डेलरिम्पल जी तक पहुंचा दें, आपका बहुत बड़ा उपकार होगा। प्रश्न यह है कि विलियम डेलरिम्पल जी की पुस्तकों का हिंदी अनुवाद क्यों उपलब्ध नहीं है। विलियम डेलरिम्पल जी की पुस्तकों का हिंदी अनुवाद हिंदी पाठकों के लिए कब उपलब्ध होगा? यदि आप यह संदेश विलियम डेलरिम्पल जी तक पहुंचा दें, तो आपका बहुत बड़ा उपकार होगा। खासकर हिंदी पाठकों के लिए जो केवल हिंदी में ही पुस्तकें पढ़ते हैं। बहुत-बहुत धन्यवाद।
William should read this enchanting novel called the grand anaicut,by one Veena muthuramans about the anaicut karikala cholan constructed ,which still stands near trichnapally in tamilnadu. How the port town under their rule had mercants from rome,far east and Arabia living and doing business.
Asking the author to be concise lest he lose the audience is clumsy coming from Thapar. One would think he would be subtle yet warm in his approach in steering this conversation.
It’s a very good book and a great interview! However, It’s not true that this glorious story of ancient India has not been told in details in the past! Jawaharlal Nehru’s Discovery of India, written in 1945, gives many details of achievements of Ancient India including scientific, intellectual and economic achievements! He has spent more than 150 pages describing these achievements! Anyways, Karan, you got a good interview! Satish Bagal
A lot of conjecture, very similar to the hypernationalists we see today such as the jokers who claim the Taj Mahal is actually Tejo Mahal. That said, it has piqued my interest, and I will surely get the book and look for references and footnotes that support the claims.
Today bombay's high court judge colabawala given direction to registration of marriage, 2marriage as per personal law they have registration. He power to make law.
Hmmmm! Karan Thapar, what would your cousin Romila Thapar and her friends like Irfan Habib react to William Dalrymple’s take on the influence of Bharatiya culture and civilization across Asia, when they write about how the Mongols civilized Bharat and brought art, culture, magnificent architecture and cuisine, not forgetting other achievements they attributed to the invaders? Really? Nomads from Central Asia taught us all that? 🇮🇱♥️🇮🇳

This is a joke 😂. I've just listened to a work of fantasy. He's basing his arguments on a fantasy version of India. You can't confuse the historical region of India with the modern state of India, they're two different things, two different concepts, two different factual realities... Influences from the region of India cannot be assigned to the country of India, it becomes a lie.
Ohh no.. ancient india had aircraft🤣.... this is what BJP propagate?? Normal educated Indians who are. going to BJP is just bcoz of this. If we know our past and instill we are also descendants of these great people.. we will have confidence tot ake on the world.
Please read books, If you like fiction.. I suuggest you to read Mr. William's books... Even if you don't like history..its ike reading a novel..I started with 'The last Mughal', now i have a collection of his publications!

The Anarchy: The Relentless Rise of the East India Company and The Last Mughal: The Fall of Delhi, 1857 are among the best history books written by Dalrymple. Would love to read more books authored by him.
For more fun read Irfan Habib, Mridula Mukherjee.
Damn! Karan Thapar has been doing some insanely good interviews recently.
Desperately waiting for this dialogue in this new book, and it is here!
I've read many books by him, they're amazing amalgamation of history, cilture & tourism, would love to read it too!!!
Excellent book - it gave me a high being an Indian for right reason

INDIA IS LORD BUDHA AND LORD BUDHA IS INDIA

But budhha is anti brahmin....

Good of Karan to bring William back to the interview as William gets carried away.
Ordered the audio version of this book on Amazon!!!

आपसे एक निवेदन है, कृपया इसे निवेदन समझकर विलियम डेलरिम्पल जी तक पहुंचा दें, आपका बहुत बड़ा उपकार होगा।
प्रश्न यह है कि विलियम डेलरिम्पल जी की पुस्तकों का हिंदी अनुवाद क्यों उपलब्ध नहीं है।
विलियम डेलरिम्पल जी की पुस्तकों का हिंदी अनुवाद हिंदी पाठकों के लिए कब उपलब्ध होगा?
यदि आप यह संदेश विलियम डेलरिम्पल जी तक पहुंचा दें, तो आपका बहुत बड़ा उपकार होगा।
खासकर हिंदी पाठकों के लिए जो केवल हिंदी में ही पुस्तकें पढ़ते हैं।
बहुत-बहुत धन्यवाद।
So now we finally have a stamp of approval of a "gora" scholar, let's hope the world will really recognise India's historical importance.
William should read this enchanting novel called the grand anaicut,by one Veena muthuramans about the anaicut karikala cholan constructed ,which still stands near trichnapally in tamilnadu. How the port town under their rule had mercants from rome,far east and Arabia living and doing business.
India needs its Joseph Needham, and Dalrymple may consider stepping in that role.
Fibonachi theorem is fascinating.
We have lost the intectuality in all subjects.
Asking the author to be concise lest he lose the audience is clumsy coming from Thapar. One would think he would be subtle yet warm in his approach in steering this conversation.
The next research work by Mr Dalrymple should be on why such a magnificient civilization degenerated to its present form.
It’s a very good book and a great interview! However, It’s not true that this glorious story of ancient India has not been told in details in the past! Jawaharlal Nehru’s Discovery of India, written in 1945, gives many details of achievements of Ancient India including scientific, intellectual and economic achievements!

Anyways, Karan, you got a good interview!

Ancient India.

In modern times,we have ramanujan.
This was the same press which refused to Print Delhi-2020 Riots.
Some Hindus hv forgotten.
Karan show this to your sister also
Vidhnus consort is not Durga William,it is Lakshmi.
Karan Thapar--- when he changed
The way the external people discover us is interesting, but the inward depections are boring.
Before I say no income but expense, digital india .
If you think grand trunk and silk road it join the India even khyber.
Hmmmm!

He is Aryabhata not Aryabhatta or Arya Bhatt.

Karan visibly not happy that India is being promoted.
Desert religions and Indian religions.
