In the essays assembled in Clearing a Space Chaudhuri draws on his own experiences to offer an acute exploration of what it means to be a modern Indian in relation to history. Often beginning with the personal he inquires into the nature of the secular in India into the history of such categories as the West the foreign the global and the exotic and into the frequently torn and self-divided nature of modern Indian identity. With the same elegance and intelligence for which he has become known Chaudhuri writes in these essays about Indian popular culture and high culture travel and location in Paris Bombay Dublin Calcutta and New York empire and nationalism Indian and Western cinema the place of the everyday in Indian creativity music art and literature politics race cosmopolitanism urban landscapes Hollywood and Bollywood Anglophone India internationalism globalisation the Indian English tradition that predates Rushdie post-colonialism and much more.
