How do description of heritage monuments influence our sense of what is good or bad, or likable or avoidable, about various religious communities? 
This episode of HistoryChatter pays tribute to the scholarship of Sunil Kumar, who wrote at length about the many ways in which our present concerns influence our understanding of heritage monuments. 
Typically, as we shall see, all heritage monuments bear many histories, and yet at the present, we appear to celebrate only one of those histories. 
This episode offers a case study of this process, based on Kumar’s pioneering work on the Qutub Minar.

Hosted by Dr. Anirban Bandyopadhyay

Yet, the past is a necessity to understand how the present has come about and where it is heading. 
HistoryChatter is about stories about the past that walk us through the present. It believes  good history can be done with fun.
