Achronicity

Views from without have long afflicted the nation; hermetic views that have made Indians see their own country through the eyes of the outsider blind them eventually to the abiding charm of the discontinuities and achronicities.

Even the achronicity of poetic time may therefore be linked to historiography; poetic achronicity in the wider narrative is examined by Andrew Feldherr in his study of Aeneid Book 5 (Chapter Four).
