Synopsis

V.S. Naipaul, a modern historiographer has made a critical commitment to contemporary chronicles of the post colonials. He sees the significance of history in moral psychological terms. He is definitely not a disconnected authentic specialist who is keen on the past for the past, or inquisitively for somebody who puts such a great amount ever. He investigates the documents in the British Museum and somewhere else to get the genuine feel of the history of the settlement. He visits India in light of the fact that there was nobody to reveal to him what sort of India his grandparents had originated from.
At his India tour Naipaul sees India with a history specialist's eye and witnesses an extraordinary loss of chronicled brilliance. For Naipaul India progresses toward becoming "archaic" because of consistent misfortune. Naipaul in his third piece of book, “An Area of Darkness” starts with the chapter ‘fantasy and ruins’, he talks about destruction of Vijaynagar Kingdom and sees significantly that life is a challenging and shocking battle with more to persist than to appreciate. In An Area of Darkness "Emergency" presents Indian reactions to the Chinese assault on India. In this he shows the real image of India during that period.
Naipaul held the view that India ought not to separate all association with the past, which is justifiable, similar to his confinement opposite this view. An Area of Darkness is a record of Naipaul's visit to India from where his grandparents had relocated to Trinidad. He doesn't just record the experience yet reproduces it to light up the past of India. He also talks about “Medieval City” in An Area of Darkness.
