In Age of Entanglement, Kris Manjapra explores the connections that linked German and Indian intellectuals from the nineteenth century through the Second World War as they shared ideas, formed networks, and studied one another’s worlds. Moving beyond well-rehearsed critiques of colonialism towards a new critical approach, Manjapra recasts modern intellectual history in terms of the knotted intellectual itineraries of seeming strangers, and reveals the characteristics of a global age when the distance separating Europe and Asia seemed, temporarily, to disappear.
