This is the official channel of the Tazkira e Jamia: Retrieving Past Lives from Jamia
This project brings together memories relating to the founders and the subsequent builders of Jamia Millia Islamia, but also relating to the many who worked with them in less prominent positions, teachers, librarians, administrators, and staff. It works as a repository, guiding scholars and those interested in the history of the Jamia to the available sources, but it also aims at making available and generating new sources, through interviews and by encouraging people to put their memories to paper.
The project is a common initiative by the Max Weber Forum for South Asian Studies (MWF Delhi) and the Centre de Sciences Humaines, both in Delhi.
