1 comments about India (Tintin's Travel Diaries).

1. The conceit of Tintin's Travel Diaires is that they are "based" on notebooks that Tintin may have kept as he traveled on his adventures. Tintin first visited India in his first two-part adventure "Cigars of the Pharoah" and "The Blue Lotus," and this companion volume to those two Hergé stories asks thirty key questions designed for young readers. What teachers and parents will appreciate is that these are not just questions that young readers would have after reading Tintin's adventures in India, such as "Do people still ride elephants in India?" and "Why are cows sacred to Hindus?", but questions they should asks, such as "Should we say `Indian' or `Hindu'?" and "What is an `Untouchable'?"

   "Tintin's Travel Adventures: India" helps young readers explore the geography, culture, custom, and heritage of India and its people. Each two-page spread asks a question, such as "What are India's natural borders?" and answers it with three paragraphs of clear and concise text by Anne Braquet and Martine Noblet (translated by Maureen Walker). Hergé's original cartooning is used, juxtaposed with photographs showing what India is like today. One of the strengths of the Tintin Adventures has been the sense of detail Hergé brought to his work through his research. That is one of the primary reasons that Tintin became an international success and something that Tintin's Travel Adventures can build upon to add even more education into the mix along with the fun.

1. To be frank,I never have the chance to read the book,yet I ever read lots of essays and thesis telling me that the book is really helpful to a student intending to have a in-depth search of Passage,so I wish to get the book for a long time.Although I tried all means, I haven't gotten the book.That's why I've come to the Amazon.



2. Forster spent a couple of years working as a secretary for an indigenous royal within the British Raj, a situation quite different from that of most Britishers working out in the Empire at that time and resulting in an experience, outward and inward, quite different from the ferociously enforced norm. Of course the man was quite different from the ferociously enforced norm to start with. This is Forster's account of that experience, and, aside from his own story, it includes a lot of interesting details of the "India" of that time, some of which still hold true (e.g. an innate tendency toward political intrigue, and generally the overwhelming social structure), and some of which are now receding into history (e.g. enormous morning flights of fruit bats returning to their roosts in the jungle, and generally the overwhelming presence of nature).
   Anyone who whose enjoyment of "Passage" went beyond plot and characterization will find quite a bit of edification in the cultural information supplied here. Of course, not being a novel, it lacks the full narrative impulse that people enjoy in "Passage", if they enjoyed it.
