Historiography of Partition

This book presents a case-oriented comparative analysis of the historiography and literature of political partition in both the Indian Subcontinent and Palestine. Despite the clear dissimilarities between the partition in both countries in terms of their historical contexts, size, and overtness of the conflict, a comparison between both of them would help in understanding and elucidating the consequences of partition on the everyday man. This study examines the historiography of partition in both geographic localities by relying on the tools of historical new historicism.
