| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Narendra Nath Bhattacharya (1887) and in later years known as Manabendra Nath Roy (M.N. Roy) adorns a remarkable place in the history of Indian philosophy of the twentieth century. He was a versatile scholar, a linguist, a born revolutionary, a subtle theorist, a penetrating intellectual, an uncompromising rationalist and an original thinker. Unlike the other Indian political thinkers of India, Roy has made a clear distinction between philosophy and religion in his thought. Roy's intellectual odyssey took him from militant Hindu nationalism to communism and there from to emerging as a humanist and radical democrat. |
