The Crafts and Capitalism
Author: Tirthankar Roy
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000024695
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 189
Book Description
This book presents a comprehensive history of handloom weaving industry in India to challenge and revise the view that competition from machine-produced textiles destroyed the country’s handicrafts as claimed by historians until recently. It shows that skill-intensive handmade textiles survived the competition on a large scale, and that handmade goods and high-quality manual labour played a positive role in the making of modern India. Rich in archival material, The Crafts and Capitalism explores themes such as the historiography of craft technologies; statistical work on nineteenth-century cotton cloth production trends; narratives of merchants, the social leaders, the factory-owners; tools and techniques; and, shift from handloom to power loom. The book argues that changes in the handloom industry were central to the consolidation of new forms of capitalism in India. An important intervention in Indian economic history, this book will be useful to scholars and researchers of Indian history, economic history, colonial history, modern history, political history, labour history and political economy. It will also interest nongovernmental organizations, textile historians, and design specialists.

Clemente Made in India
Author: Jyotindra Jain
Publisher:
ISBN: 9788881588091
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
A visual journey through Francesco Clemente's images of India, collected over four decades. Francesco Clemente first travelled to India in 1973 in search of "somewhere else". The acutely contemporary world of India that he encountered, whose antiquity had been transformed and reinvented by a lively popular culture, enchanted him. Over the next four decades, and across numerous trips, Clemente journeyed through the ever-mutating cartography of Indian visual culture - temple exteriors, shop signs, calendars, advertisements, graffiti, and more - building up an archive of images, both in his memory and in his notebooks filled with hundreds of drawings, lying latent over decades, coalescing, talking to each other, eventually surfacing in his work in another incarnation, another context. -- Publisher's blurb.
