This volume commemorates 100 years of the publication of E. M. Forster’s A Passage to India.  It discusses the novel’s contexts, themes, characters and reception – including translations and adaptations – and its abiding status as a modern classic. Some of the foremost scholars of Forster’s life and work from around the world engage with the novel in terms of contemporary concerns, including history, religions, mystery, politics, colonisation, race, gender, identity, ethics and the Anthropocene. Together with scholarly explorations, the volume also offers some creative speculations.
