We are happy to share with you that on 25th November 2023, on the occasion of the Foundation Day of the Asiatic, the Society has released Volume 91 of the ASM Journal. It has come to the Society's notice that some unscrupulous elements are collecting money for publishing papers in the Society's Journal and offering bogus certificates. The Asiatic Society does not collect money for publishing in its journal, nor does it guarantee publication, and neither does it issue any certificate. Authors must verify with the Society before submitting any papers, and papers will be published only after rigorous peer review and editing. The Society does not take responsibility for any payments made to third parties claiming to represent the Society, or for their papers appearing in a cloned/spam journal. Ours is a print-only journal. 

   

 

NAVIGATING RIVERS, BRIDGING CULTURES.
The Extraordinary Life of Captain Sir Alexander Burnes (1805- 1841)

Talk by Prof Mariam Dossal
Chair Prof Manjiri Kamat
Thursday, 8 February 2024
5:30 pm (Tea at 5:00 pm)
Durbar Hall, The Asiatic Society of Mumbai.

 
Captain Alexander Burnes of the 21st Bombay Native Infantry ranks among the foremost of nineteenth century British explorers. His detailed accounts of peoples and places he encountered while on missions in Kutch, in Sindh in the Bombay Presidency or navigating the 1000-mile course of the Indus river, were filled with new insights. Burnes also explored Punjab, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Persia, and opened the eyes of the Western world to ‘exotic’ lands and cultures.

Burnes was a member of the Managing Committee of the Bombay Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society as well as the Geographical Society of Bombay.
