Book Description
The Origin and Growth of Village Communities In India by Baden Henry Baden-Powell. The object of this little book is to explain, the nature and origin of Indian village communities, with special reference to the commonly received theories about them. Many people have heard vaguely that the villages represent an ancient "communal" holding of land; others have heard that this theory has been much doubted. They would perhaps like to know more about the subject without having to make a prolonged or very detailed study. These Indian communities are living. The importance of observing and understanding them for the purposes of the comparative history of institutions, is admitted on all hands. But often as "the village" is alluded to in histories or other books on Indian subjects, is considered a thing in the air, rather than an existing institution, which can be studied with reference to historic facts, times, and places, and to tribes and families of known race and location.

"It cannot be necessary to write a formal preface to so small a book. But I may be allowed to make use of the space for two purposes. First, I have to express my thanks to Prof. W. J. Ashley, M.A., of Harvard University, and late Fellow of Lincoln College, Oxford, not only for the suggestion that a short account of the Indian village should be written, but for valuable advice and criticism in the course of writing it."...

Book Description
Excerpt from The Origin and Growth of Village Communities in India It cannot be necessary to write a formal preface to so small a book. But I may be allowed to make use of the space for two purposes. First, I have to express my thanks to Prof. W. J. Ashley, M.A., of Harvard University, and late Fellow of Lincoln College, Oxford, not only for the suggestion that a short account of the Indian village should be written, but for valuable advice and criticism in the course of writing it. Secondly, I have to say a few words about the (not very frequent) Indian words (Hindi, Persian, etc.) which occur. I have avoided them wherever I could; but sometimes they are needed for the sake of readers in India, or because there is no satisfactory equivalent; partly also because they show that the thing indicated is, or is not, indigenous; that it has been borrowed from the Moslems, or is an older Hindu institution. Now, the only tolerable way in which such words can be given in print, is by transliterating into Roman character; and people then say "we do not know how they should be pronounced." But for practical purposes, it is quite easy to pronounce Indian words at least intelligibly. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

India's Social Heritage

Pages : 130
Book Description
First published in 1937, India’s Social Heritage is intended to give a simple statement of the principal features of the social system in pre-independence India. The social system of pre-Independence India retained many features characteristic of an early stage of social growth. Society was still largely communal in the sense that it was organized in groups. Individual life was based on collective standards and had to be in harmony as a unit in a group, to whose interests his own were subordinate. The social system may be described as a synthesis of groups rather than persons, while the joint family was the basis of Hindu law. This book will be of interest to students of history, sociology and South Asian studies.
