[edit] Opinion or Original Research

The last paragraph is original research. There is no citation or support. I am removing it for now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.245.35.5 (talk) 20:13, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Ahmad as a Historian

Certainly in In Theory he works as a historian and his critical engagement with/against post-moderism and the Subaltern Studie group merits, in my opinion, his inclusion in the category of Indian historians. I think he should have a category more specific than just "Indian People", which is far too vague. If anyone one has other better or complementary ideas for categories, we can discuss them here.

[edit] Probably is the most engaging

[edit] Removed personal opinion

The article had one sentence of fulsome praise for Aijaz Ahmad; I removed it. WP cannot take any position on the truth or falsity of his ideas, on his intelligence or lack thereof. If someone wants to quote a reliable source as to his importance, please do. Zora 07:23, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
