De la « walled city » à la « world city » : Delhi, un océan de romans
Old Delhi, long called the “Walled City” in contrast with the new town built by the British in the early twentieth century, is only one of the seven cities founded in succession on the territory of the present megalopolis, each of them adding to the architectural heritage, more or less maintained, which is the mark of the city. The paper presents the voice of various contemporaneous Indian writers, commenting on this city both inhabited by its own past and today fast changing in order to assert itself as the “World City,” true capital of a multi-legendary Shining India.
