very important clarifications! thank you. 

i will not get into an extended discussion of the historiography of the 
subaltern studies.


This thread is getting as abstruse as its subject....ABHISHEK! what is 
historiography??


When I find myself skimming over the prose instead of reading it....I know that

Simple.

History is what happened, interpreted by professional historians.

Historiography is about HOW they interpret the bare facts; the mental methods, 
constructs, paradigms and tools that they use.
