Book Description
Excerpt from The Wrongs of Indian Womanhood It is a matter of deep thankfulness to me that Mrs. Fuller is publishing her articles on "The Wrongs of Indian Womanhood" in a book. The world needs such books to enlighten it. Very few people, even in India itself, know what really goes on behind the purdah. Hundreds of our Indian reformers are ignorant of the real condition of women. The Indian women themselves do not realize the depths of degradation they are in. Even those who have suffered the greatest wrongs are reluctant to tell the truth to the world, even if they have the opportunity, for fear they may lower themselves and their nation in the eyes of other nations. A young widow was telling me some of the hardships she and other widows had to fear. Another young widow heard what she said to me and, when the talk was over, the latter took the former aside and gave her a severe scolding for betraying her family and her nation at large!

Required Reading
Author: Priyasha Mukhopadhyay
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 0691261547
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
How ordinary forms of writing—including manuals, petitions, almanacs, and magazines—shaped the way colonial subjects understood their place in empire In Required Reading, Priyasha Mukhopadhyay offers a new and provocative history of reading that centers archives of everyday writing from the British empire. Mukhopadhyay rummages in the drawers of bureaucratic offices and the cupboards of publishers in search of how historical readers in colonial South Asia responded to texts ranging from licenses to manuals, how they made sense of them, and what this can tell us about their experiences living in the shadow of a vast imperial power. Taking these engagements seriously, she argues, is the first step to challenging conventional notions of what it means to read. Mukhopadhyay’s account is populated by a cast of characters that spans the ranks of colonial society, from bored soldiers to frustrated bureaucrats. These readers formed close, even intimate relationships with everyday texts. She presents four case studies: a soldier’s manual, a cache of bureaucratic documents, a collection of astrological almanacs, and a women’s literary magazine. Tracking moments in which readers refused to read, were unable to read, and read in part, she uncovers the dizzying array of material, textual, and aural practices these texts elicited. Even selectively read almanacs and impenetrable account books, she finds, were springboards for personal, world-shaping readerly relationships. Untethered from the constraints of conventional literacy, Required Reading reimagines how texts work in the world and how we understand the very idea of reading.
