The History, Beliefs and Customs of India   

From Mark Twain to Einstein to Ralph Waldo Emerson, who said of India, “It’s the voice of an old intelligence,” people have been intrigued, mystified, and confounded by all that she is. Albert Einstein observed, “We owe a lot to the Indians, who taught us how to count, without which no worthwhile scientific discovery could have been made." This class will also touch on India’s relationship with the British and what makes India such a mystery—even to her own people—where every 50 miles or so, dialects, beliefs, food, and clothing can change.
