"Inposing such wide-ranging questions aboutthe civilization in India, Kosambi differed
from the general run of academichistorians of his times for they rarelyengaged in the discourse of civilizations.
He was swimming against the current. Thespecialized and fragmented view in theacademic historians professional writingsdid not usually add up to that vision oftotality that the notion of civilizationdemands. The fact that Kosambi was nevergiven his due by them in his lifetime can be,arguably, ascribed to their disdain for anon-professional who was not only anavowed Marxist, but also given to talking
about a dubious entity calledcivilization."
