[edit] Plagarism

The entire plot summary has been lifted from a book report at http://www3.uakron.edu/rheology/vivek_files/Vandematram.htm

[edit] One sided?

This subject is an issue of debate. Yet, the text doesn't give any hint... Please see the page related to the author: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bankim_Chandra_Chatterjee

• * Anandamath (The mission house of Felicity, 1882) is a political novel which depicts a Sannyasi (Brahmin ascetic) army fighting Indian muslims who are in the employ of the East India Company. The book calls for the rise of Brahmin/Hindu nationalism but, ironically, concludes with a character accepting British Empire as a necessity. The novel was also the source of the song "Vande Mataram" (I worship the Mother) which, set to music by Rabindranath Tagore, was taken up by many secular nationalists. The novel is loosely based on the time of the Sannyasi Rebellion, however in the actual rebellion, Hindus sannyasis and Muslim fakirs both rebelled against the British East India Company. The novel first appeared in serial form in Bangadarshan. --fredericknoronha 09:13, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

The debate is remotely related to the novel. It is all about Vande Mataram. The novel itself is just an ordinary novel - they all have their contents. It is the song which is controversial.--Jahilia 01:41, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Is there a place where I can download the text? It is in public domain.--Jahilia 22:58, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
