Academic History Military & War

Most Indian soldiers could not write and left no trace of their war experiences through diaries, letters or journals. Through trench artefacts, memoirs, photographs, paintings, and original sound-recordings from POW camps in Germany, Dr Das has uncovered the sepoys’ literary, visual and aural culture of the time.

Tickets are FREE but must be booked in advance by calling: 020 7730 0717 or email: [email protected]. Bookings close three days before each lecture.
