Shabda
Cayaniká
Ostensibly, Shabda Cayaniká is a series devoted to the
linguistics and philology of the Bengali language, but in
reality it is much more than that. The author uses the
platform of the word as a point of departure to take the
reader on a journey through all the varied landscapes of
human knowledge – history, geography, medicine, science,
art, religion, philosophy, etc. – and in the process adds
the indelible stamp of his own unique wisdom, enriching our
experience with new ideas and enabling us to see our human
heritage in a way we have never been able to before.
Eventually 26 volumes will be available in English.
