Hindustani phrases that were learned by the Prince of Wales party who he visited India in 1920

Ghoosul teeyar kurro Make ready the bath
Yeh boot sarf kurro Make clean these boots
 Peg do Give me a whisky and soda
 Ghora lao Bring round the horse
Yeh miler hai; leyjao This is dirty; take it away
 Tum Kootch Angrezi bolte hai? Do you speak any English?
Mai neigh sumujhta I don’t understand

INDIAN SUMMER

IN THE BEGINNING, THERE WERE TWO NATIONS. ONE WAS A vast, mighty and magnificent empire, brilliantly organized and culturally unified, which dominated a massive swath of the earth. The other was an undeveloped, semifeudal realm, riven by religious factionalism and barely able to feed its illiterate, diseased and stinking masses. The first nation was India. The second was England.

Art History Lecture Monday, December 8th

Please take a moment this weekend to look through the two new albums on the AT Euro art history flickr page, Rococo Art and Neoclassical Art, in preparation for the art history lecture on Monday, December 8th.

There will be no pre-class assignment to turn in this time, but please think about what stylistic differences you see between the two kinds of art and come prepared to talk about it.
