Description

Whereas most studies of colonialism focus on India's 'high' literary culture, this book looks at how local intellectuals exploited their 'middling' position through such initiatives as the establishment of newspapers and of influential channels of communication.



Examines the relationship between linguistic hierarchies, textual practices and power in colonial western India.



About the Author

Veena Naregal completed her PhD at SOAS (School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London). This book reflects her multi-disciplinary interests in post-colonial theory, alternative modernities and contemporary cultural politics.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
