    The Magic of the Museum

    In this episode, Eric and Kudrat look into the idea of the museum. The museum originated in India as a private, inaccessible space which recreated the fantasy of an exotic oriental landscape. Post-independence, India's museums transformed into doorways to the nation's history - open to all - invoking curiosity and wonder. The episode also bids farewell to the National Museum, New Delhi, where itihāsology has conducted museum walks throughout recent years and built a community of history aficionados. Discover Indian history with us!
