Abstract

Since modernity is not the project of self-consciousness of the Indian subject, born and evolved out of its own rational formulations, it came to us through a complex process of interaction with the modern West. This complexity has been grasped differently by people of different intellectual and moral persuasions. Depending upon which aspect of modernity or which of its features have been chosen for articulation within the Indian context, relating it to the significance of many traditions of thought, different languages have constituted the body of this discourse. The plurality of the languages of Indian modernity only affirms that the philosophical moment of a split between the subject and the object characteristic of the western modernity has been by passed in its realization within Indian Context. There are, at least, three significant languages of its articulation that emerge and can be taken up for further interpretation. They are: the traditionalist/neo-traditionalist, replicative/nationalist and the interpretative/hermeneutical language.
