Indian Culture, Art and Heritage by Devdutt Pattanaik

Culture refers to the accumulation of knowledge, beliefs, values, religion, and material possessions acquired by a group of people in the course of generations. In cultural studies, we survey people’s food, clothing and shelter preferences, their belief and value systems, rituals and customs. Culture is often expressed through art – tangible (literature, fine arts, sculptures, fashion, architecture, coins, pots, carvings, etc.) and intangible (performing arts, music, dance and theatre) forms. As humans, our obligation lies with the conservation of Heritage in order to take it forward.

This book signifies the amalgamation of these three elements – Culture, Art and Heritage – and their result on the revitalization of the Indian society from its inception. This book has been designed to accommodate the Civil services aspirants.
