O knihe

Nehru decided to write World History because he rightly thought that the past was capable of moulding the future. According to him it is an exploratory process that makes us see in the dark.It deals with Nehru's Approach of History and how it differs from Will Durant's and H.G.Well's Approach. The comparison was drawn on the basis of their books 'Glimpses of World History ' and 'An Outline of History' Comparisons were made on the various points such as Upnishads ,Treatment of Indian Art , Eminent Personalities , Caste system. There is a remarkable rhythm in Nehru's prose and he makes abundant use of the traditional elements of poetic art, Rich, apt and powerful use of quotations from English poets and writers as we find in Nehru's writings particularly in 'An Autobiography.'The enrichment of his style by means of quotations is concerned, Nehru has drawn heavily on prose writers as well, besides making a proper use of lines of poetry. Nehru expresses his views about history in 'Discovery of India' and remarks significantly that history is not constituted by men of power and authority. In fact those who toil and work in fields and factories are the real makers of history.
