Marga Institute to host lecture on Martin Wickramasinghe

Martin Wickramasinghe

Titled "Disintegration, Transformation, and Development", the presentation will focus on Wickramasinghe's writings on economics and equity.

Though hailed as a novelist and writer of fiction, Wickramasinghe emerged in the early 20th century as the leading public intellectual of his time in Sri Lanka. His writings encompassed several subjects, including anthropology, art, culture, history, and politics. By the time of his death in 1976, these had been collected in numerous volumes of essays.

In its official statement, Marga Institute noted, “We are pleased to collaborate with the Martin Wickramasinghe Trust on an important intervention aimed at strengthening understanding among practitioners and development partners of the role and significance of economic development in early Sri Lanka.”
