Synopsis "Being Modern. A Biography of Ananda Ram Dhekial Phookan"

Despite his short life, Ananda Ram left an indelible mark on Assamese society and scholarship. His crusade to establish Assamese as Assam’s rightful court and official language―displacing Bengali from its entrenched position―would prove pivotal to the making of modern Assamese identity. His diverse scholarship ranged from books for young readers to more serious and intellectually rigorous works on colonial law and language, among other subjects.

Ananda Ram Dhekial Phookan (1829–59), the subject of this first modern Assamese biography, was the most significant figure in early colonial Assam. Born into a family affected by the region’s political upheavals, including the First Anglo–Burmese War (1824–26].
