Of Lions and Legacies
In the politics of symbolism, there is a choice between benevolent and fierce images.
Kumkum Roy writes:
We have had a lively and typically polarised debate about the pride of lions that will be sitting on top of the new Parliament building. The expressions on the faces of the lions have aroused, perhaps justifiably, a degree of anxiety, even as we have been assured that they are actually as benign as lions almost invariably are.
