What Is a Nation?
-
Renan writes, "a nation's existence is, if you will pardon the metaphor, a daily plebiscite, just as an individual's existence is a perpetual affirmation of life" (quoted in "D," p. 310). Renan's essay, "What Is a Nation?" from which this quotation is cited, is reprinted in the same volume; see Ernest Renan, "What Is a Nation?" trans. Martin Thom, in Nation and Narration, pp. 8-22

Editorial Notes
-
So firm was the belief in the efficacy of the sacrificial fire that when an editor of a newspaper suggested that McDugall's powder, instead of butter, be used as a disinfectant, the Arya Samaj responded, We pity this knowledge of the Editor with respect to the Hom philosophy of the Aryas . . . . We will simply ask the learned Editor to state what obnoxious gases there are in the atmosphere and how does McDugall's powder clean the atmosphere of them. The truth is that he believes this powder to be a disinfectant at the most because it is so regarded by English Science. The ancient Scientific world with him has no existence.

Declarations of Independence
-
This phrase is Derrida's, speaking of the "the people" in whose name the American Declaration of Independence was signed. He writes that this people did not exist prior to the Declaration: "The signature invents the signer. This signer can only authorize him- or herself to sign once he or she has come to the end [parvenu au vout], if one can say this, of his or her own signature, in a sort of fabulous retroactivity" (Jacques Derrida, "Declarations of Independence," New Political Science, no. 15 [Summer 1986]: 10)

Anderson captures something of this ambivalent imagination of the nation when he asks, "why are untold sums of money spent each year to teach the young to 'remember' certain things that they are simultaneously taught to 'have already forgotten'?" (Anderson, "Narrating the Nation," p. 659)

Hindu Mind in Its Relation to Science and Religion
-
Here, Ray drew on ideas that were well established. James Mill was only the most eminent exponent of the view, later espoused by many intellectuals at the close of the nineteenth century, that Hindu philosophy, particularly Vedanta, was inimical to the investigation of the physical world. "The Vedantist was most imperatively enjoined to abstract his attention from the delusive appearances that were around him, and to concentrate on the reality that underlay them," wrote an anonymous author, adding that a "school of philosophy so obnoxious to material prosperity, so repressive of the habit of observation, took away at once the motive and means for the growth of physical science" ("Hindu Mind in Its Relation to Science and Religion," Calcutta Review 98, no. 195 [1894]: 71-72)

Jawaharlal Nehru, The Discovery of India (New York, 1946), p. 218. Nehru writes: During the first thousand years of the Christian era, there are many ups and downs in India, many conflicts with invading elements and internal troubles. Yet it is a period of vigorous national life, bubbling over with energy and spreading out in all directions. . . . Yet even before that Golden Age [the period of the Gupta empire, fourth through seventh centuries A.D.] had come to a close, signs of weakness and decay become visible. . . . In the south there was still vitality and vigor, and this lasted for some centuries more; in the Indian colonies abroad there was aggressive and full-blooded life right up to the middle of the next millennium. But the heart seems to petrify, its beats are slower, and gradually this petrifaction and decay spread to the limbs. [Pp. 216, 217, 219]
