Can anyone recommend books that study the nature of ideas about history,

and of belief in historical 'facts' and events, in India ancient and

modern? I am interested in the difference between ancient and modern

Indians' attitudes to the 'truth' of religious narratives, and especially

in the ways in which Indians' attitude to history may have changed in

response to a new conception of history brought by the Muslims, whose

religious myth was perhaps on a very much more 'thiswordly' level than

that of the

Indians.
