Item Description:Issued in conjunction with Sharjah Biennial 10, Mar. 16-May 16, 2011. - "The dialectic of belonging and betrayal is the subject of this Manual for Treason. The book begins with a call to action, part earnest part ironic, evangelical in tone and using fervid language drawn from both religious and political scriptures. It seeks to wrest treason from the state's clutches, reclaiming it as a necessary ethic of dissent, and shifting it from a noun defined by the state to a verb enacted on our own terms. The four portrait-essays that follow, each stemming from a distinct historical moment, trace the shifting contours of the dialectic of national affiliation and treason through the last two centuries in South Asia" --Sharjah Art Foundation website. - Includes bibliographical references. - In English, Hindi, Urdu, Bengali and Kannada
