This now classic work provides challenging new ways of thinking about nationalism, colonialism and modernity, in Sri Lanka. Situated at the conceptual intersection of history and identity, the essays in the volume denaturalizes the claims of the nation, taking it apart analytically, pointing to hidden relations of power and inequality that undergird it. "Stimulating... Excellent..." -- Journal of Asian Studies. "...will be of great value to all those concerned with... nationalism, violence and adversarial historiography."--- Arjun Appadurai "....forces us to think about Sri Lankan symbolic and social formations in an entirely novel fashion." --Gananath Obeyesekere
