The online Gandhi Heritage Portal preserves, protects, and disseminates original writings of Mohandas K. Gandhi and makes available to the world the large corpus of “Fundamental Works” which are useful for any comprehensive study of the life and thought of Gandhiji. The Government of India and its Ministry of Culture, acting on the recommendation of the Gandhi Heritage Sites Committee headed by Shri Gopal Krishna Gandhi, gave the responsibility of conceptualising, designing, developing and maintaining the Gandhi Heritage Portal to the Sabarmati Ashram Preservation and Memorial Trust. ''The Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi'' (100 volumes), ''Gandhiji No Akshar Deha'' (82 volumes) and ''Sampoorna Gandhi Vangmaya'' (97 volumes) form the basic structure around which the Portal has been developed. The key texts provide first editions of the Key Texts of Gandhiji. These are: Hind Swaraj, Satyagraha in South Africa, ''An Autobiography or The Story of My Experiments with Truth'', ''From Yervada Mandir'', ''Ashram Observances in Action'', ''Constructive Programmes: Their Meaning and Place, Key To Health'' and Gandhiji's translation of the Gita as Anasakti Yoga. The Fundamental Works are those through which ''The Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi'' (CWMG) was created, for instance the Mahadevbhai Ni Diary. Over time the Portal plans to provide all the collected works. The Journals provide electronic versions of ''Indian Opinion'', ''Navajivan'', ''Young India'', ''Harijan'', ''Harijan Bandhu'' and ''Harijan Sevak''. A sub-section provides some of the journals which make for a fuller archive of the Gandhian imagination and scholarship. At present the Portal has placed as representation ''Gandhi Marg'' (Hindi & English), ''Bhoomi Putra'', ''Pyara Bapu'' and the unique handwritten journal of the Satyagraha Ashram Madhpudo, which among other things carried Prabhudas Gandhi's ''Jivan Nu Parodh'' and Kakasaheb Kalelkar's ''Smaran Yatra''. The Portal hopes to include many more journals as it acquires these overtime. Other Works is a section that takes into account the commentarial and memoire literature. The Life and Times section is under development, and will provide information that could lead the reader to explore the data. The Gallery will provide audio, visual, and film material as well as images of caricatures, paintings and postage stamps. The Portal provides a sample of each of these. The Gandhi Heritage Sites, under development and verification, will provide multiple layers of information regarding places that Gandhiji visited. The information will contain references to primary sources about these visits as well. ==The Collected Works Of Mahatma Gandhi== In 1956 Government of India initiated a project unmatched in its aspiration. This was to provide an authentic documentation of all available writings of Gandhiji. The Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi is a result of this meticulous and conscientious effort, which concluded in 1994. It was decided that Gandhiji writings should be made available in three languages: Gujarati, English and Hindi. Consequently, Gandhiji No Akshardeha (Gujarati) and Sampoorna Gandhi Vangmaya (Hindi) were created based upon the editorial architecture determined for the CWMG. At present there are 100 volumes of the CWMG, 82 volumes of Gandhiji No Akshardeha and 97 volumes of Sampoorna Gandhi Vangmaya. These volumes provide information about the source of these writings as also the language in which they were originally written. Volumes 1 to 90 of the CWMG follow chronological order, while volumes 91-97 are supplementary volumes created to accommodate new material that came to be acquired subsequent to the publication of the series. Volumes 98 and 99 are Index of Subjects and Index of Persons respectively. Volume 100 is the compilation of Prefaces to the preceding volumes. The Gandhi Heritage Portal provides unabridged, complete sets of these. These are available in two options: archival version and enhanced version, which is a black and white version. These volumes are interlinked through a database that the Portal team has developed. It allows one to move between the three languages and search the same item. This would enable the user to compare and study their texts and explore questions of translation. The search criteria for these are as defined in volumes 98 and 99 of CWMG. The Portal is committed to provide a searchable ebook of the CWMG, based on the first edition. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gandhi Heritage Portal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
