{"product_id":"czki078vao5m","title":"Kirtibas Kolkata by Tarapada Santra [Hardcover]","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"On a rainy afternoon of August 24, 1690, Job Charnock landed at the Sutanuti Ghat from a ship that had sailed from Madras. In that waterlogged land near Hatkhola, the seeds of a city's immense potential were sown that day. Five years after Charnock's death, in 1698, the East India Company purchased the three villages of Sutanuti, Kolkata, and Gobindapur from the Zamindars of Barisha's Sabarna Choudhury family. The history of how these three villages gradually transformed into the sprawling metropolitan city known as Kolkata is both colorful and controversial. There are debates regarding its name, its founder, maps, designs, and pathways. A city that has continuously transformed itself over time cannot be entirely captured in a structured discussion. We are both proud and indifferent about this city's history. Cultural heritage historian Tarapada Santra has surveyed Kolkata from a unique perspective in this book. He observed the city while walking its paths and reminiscing along memory lanes. He unearthed the city's chronicle from neglected inscriptions and discovered historical clues through strong logic and new information. This book is a distinguished addition to the study of Kolkata.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Ananda Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48329245982970,"sku":"CZKI078VAO5M","price":256.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/0473\/5226\/files\/CZKI078VAO5M_1.jpg?v=1739902297","url":"https:\/\/versoz.co.in\/products\/czki078vao5m","provider":"VERSOZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
