This Book Examines How A Historic And Socalled 'Traditional' City Quietly Evolved Into One That Was Modern In Its Own Terms; In Form, Use And Meaning. Through A Focused Study Of Delhi, The Author Challenges Prevalent Assumptions In Architecture And Urbanism To Identify An Interpretation Of Modernism That Goes Beyond Conventional Understanding.Part One Reflects On Transformations And Discontinuities In Built Form And Spatial Culture And Questions Accepted Notions Of The Static Nature Of What Is Normally Referred To As Traditional And Nonwestern Architecture.Part Two Is A Critical Discussion Of Delhi In The Nineteenth And Early Twentieth Centuries, Redefining Modernism In A Way That Separates The City'S Architecture And Society From The Objectified Realm Of The Exotic Whilst Acknowledging Nonwestern Ideas Of Modernity.In The Final Part The Author Considers 'Indigenous Modernities': The Irregular, The Uneven And The Unexpected In What Uncritical Observers Might Call A Coherent 'Traditional' Society And Built Environment.
