## Quotes

* Nothing is more unsatisfactory than to attempt to define Indo-European society on the assumption that the Indo-Europeans knew only what can be ascribed to them on con- clusive evidence. Ex hypothesi, there were great dispersals of peoples from the original home, and those who wondered away were unquestionably constantly intermingling with other peoples . . . and it is not to be wondered at that in new surroundings new words were employed; still less can it be a matter of surprise that peoples which ceased to be in contact with natural features soon dropped the names which had become use- less.

## Quotes

* Khiljis, Tughlaqs, Lodhis, Saiyads, Suris and then Moghuls established their rules forcibly. They massacred people, covered the earth with cut heads. The land appeared to wear the veil of the blood of innocents. Mosques were constructed on the birthplace of Rama and Krishna. The Shivalinga of Kashi entered a well.

* Intensive studies of individual tribes are very important and I think ASI (ie. the Anthropological Survey of India) will always help scholars studying tribal society in different parts of the country. We should not leave the study of Nadars of Tamil Nadu or Patidars of Gujarat to foreign scholars. We should study them ourselves. This is very very necessary particularly because their intellectual and political perspectives are different from our own.

# Nonnus

Nonnus of Panopolis (Νόννος ὁ Πανοπολίτης, fl. 5th century AD) was the most notable Greek epic poet of the Imperial Roman era. He was a native of Panopolis (Akhmim) in the Egyptian Thebaid and probably lived in the 5th century AD. He is known as the composer of the Dionysiaca, an epic tale of the god Dionysus, and of the Metabole, a paraphrase of the Gospel of John. The epic Dionysiaca describes the life of Dionysus, his expedition to India, and his triumphant return. It was written in Homeric Greek and in dactylic hexameter, and it consists of 48 books at 20,426 lines.

## Quotes

** Oh might I be transform’d into a dart, Or net, or quiver! might I be the spear That slays the creatures of the woods, high-poised By her bare arm! or, more than all, the thong Of the slung bow, that o’er her back is cast: So might she draw me to her snowy breast, And to her modest girdle closely strain!

# Trifunctional hypothesis

The trifunctional hypothesis of prehistoric Proto-Indo-European society postulates a tripartite ideology ("idéologie tripartite").

## Quotes

* That the tripartite ideology conforms to the nature of things is probable, and the undoubted temporal success of the Indo-Europeans is perhaps due to the fact that they, more than any other society, including many societies that were just as gifted, were aware of this natural division in the functions of community life. It cannot be fortuitous that some of the greatest successes and demonstrations of power, right up to the modern history of Europe, are based on clear and simple revivals of this ancient archetype, as has been elegantly stated by Mr. Mircea Eliade: the three orders that existed under the French monarchy (clergy, nobility and third estate), the three essential linchpins of the Soviet State (the Party with its police, the Red Army and the workers and farmers) and the three cornerstones of the Nazi State (the Partei with its police, the Wehrmacht and the Arbeitsfront) constituted, or still constitute, machines of incontestable efficiency.

# Frontier myth

The frontier myth or myth of the West is one of the influential myths in American culture. The frontier is the concept of a place that exists at the edge of a civilization, particularly during a period of expansion. The American frontier occurred throughout the 17th to 20th centuries as European Americans colonized and expanded across North America. This period of time became romanticized and idealized in literature and art to form a myth.

## Quotes

* The Myth of the Frontier is our oldest and most characteristic myth, expressed in a body of literature, folklore, ritual, historiography, and polemics produced over a period of three centuries. According to this mythic-historiography, the conquest of the wilderness and the subjugation or displacement of the Native Americans who originally inhabited it have been the means to our achievement of a national identity, a democratic polity, an ever-expanding economy, and a phenomenally dynamic and ‘progressive’ civilization.1
** Richard Slotkin as quoted in Invading the Sacred, 254. Richard Slotkin, Gunfighter Nation.. Antonio de Nicolas, Krishnan Ramaswamy, and Aditi Banerjee (eds.) (2007), Invading the Sacred: An Analysis Of Hinduism Studies In America (Publisher: Rupa & Co., p. 254)
* Although the white Americans . . . wanted personal success and wealth, they also wanted a clear conscience. If the United States was to remain in the minds of its people a nation divinely ordained for great deeds, then the fault for the suffering inflicted in the rise to power and prosperity had to lie elsewhere. White Americans could rest easier and the sufferings of other races could be blamed on the racial weakness rather than on whites’ relentless search for wealth and power.
** Reginald Horsman, quoted in Antonio de Nicolas, Krishnan Ramaswamy, and Aditi Banerjee (eds.) (2007), Invading the Sacred: An Analysis Of Hinduism Studies In America (Publisher: Rupa & Co., p. 255), Reginald Horsman, Race and Manifest Destiny,
* Such as we were we gave ourselves outright (The deed of gift was many deeds of war) To the land vaguely realizing westward, But still unstoried, artless, unenhanced, Such as she was, such as she would become.
** Robert Frost, "The Gift Outright", in A Witness Tree (1942)

## Quotes

* Poetry is the language in which man explores his own amazement... says heaven and earth in one word... speaks of himself and his predicament as though for the first time. It has the virtue of being able to say twice as much as prose in half the time, and the drawback, if you do not give it your full attention, of seeming to say half as much in twice the time.
** In TIME magazine, New York (April 3, 1950)
* I hope I've done nothing so monosyllabic as to cheat, A spade is never so merely a spade as the word Spade would imply.
** Venus Observed (1950), act 2, sc. 1
** Cf. "Call a spade a spade"
* I tell you, Miss, I knows an undesirable character When I see one; I've been one myself for years.
** Venus Observed (1950), act 2, sc. 1
* The difference between tragedy and comedy is the difference between experience and intuition. In the experience we strive against every condition of our animal life: against death, against the frustration of ambition, against the instability of human love. In the intuition we trust the arduous eccentricities we're born to, and see the oddness of a creature who has never got acclimatized to being created.
** In Vogue magazine (January 1951)
* Try thinking of love, or something. Amor vincit insomnia.
** A Sleep of Prisoners (1951) p. 37
** Cf. Omnia vincit amor
* Coffee in England is just toasted milk.
