Hardcover. Condición: Fine. These writings translated for the first time from the Bengali are by women who were amongst the earliest to receive a modern education and become members of a reading and writing public Women wrote on a wide variety of concerns in many journals that had come into being because of the tremendous growth of vernacular print culture These were often edited by women including some of the writers in the anthology Bharat Mahila Bharati o Balak Antahpur Mahila and Bharati to mention just a few The writers contributions helped build the image of the new educated woman self-confident opinionated transgressiveWho were these writers They came as expected from elite backgrounds most were from families that belonged to the Brahmo Samaj such as Bamasundari Devi Saratkumari Chaudhurani Hemantakumari Chaudhuri Kumudini Mitra Kamini Roy and Swarnakumari Devi and her two daughters Hiranmoyee Devi and Sarala Devi members of the family of Debendranath Tagore of Jorasanko Some were Hindus like Kailashbasini Devi Girindramohini Dasi Krishnabhabini Das and Anindita Devi Two Muslim writers of this period have also been included the remarkably erudite and pioneering Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain and the lesser known Khairunnissa Khatun a social reformer in her own right No information could be found on Jagadishwari Devi or Kusumkumari Devi the former debunked the notion that tradition demanded the Hindu woman abjure wearing shoes and that if they did they were westernized and the latter argued for consensual marriage well ahead of her timeThe articles cover a whole range of social issues from womens social powerlessness which gets intertwined with the powerlessness of the colonized to the need to participate in the growing nationalist protest against the first Partition of Bengal 1905 and the ensuing Swadeshi movement The early writings speak of the home as the proper domain for women where women should strive for good domestic management The later pieces written when the fight for education is no longer an issue persuade women to enter the public domain Thus there is much interest in what would be a suitable dress to wear outside how to help women gain some financial independence how to rouse their patriotism the wish to earn a living and so on Most interesting perhaps is the manner in which perceptions of patriarchy change As these writers make their way into the elite literary world and elite politics perhaps they also discover a new role for themselves in the construction of the nation 180 pp.…

Soft cover. Condición: New. Around the middle of the nineteenth century, a social category was born in Bengal, along with a new word that named it: Lekhika or the female author.'Tanika Sarkar, Foreword These writings, translated for the first time from Bengali, form a path-breaking collection of issues that aimed at the empowerment of women and thus remain alive today. The women were the first to receive a 'modern' education and became members of the reading and writing public that hitherto was entirely male. The writers came from urban elite backgrounds, most from Brahmo Samaj families, many comparatively unknown today like Bamasundari Devi or Kumudini Mitra as well as more famous ones from the Tagore familySwarnakumari Devi and her daughters. Some were Hindus like Kailashbasini Devi and Krishnabhabini Das, among others. There are also two Muslim women writersthe brilliant Begum Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain and the social reformer Khairunnissa Khatun. The articles cover a whole range of social issues: social powerlessness, domestic management, the Swadeshi movement, what to wear outside the house when leaving seclusion, and financial independence. Writing for the new journals that came up as vernacular print media was expanding. Making their way into the literary world, the women opened up new roles for themselves and their successors.…

Soft cover. Condición: New. Hyderabad cricket has had a long and colourful history involving flamboyant players with interesting stories behind them. The game was first patronized by the aristocrats of the region especially Nawab Moin ud Dowla Bahadur who was a great cricket lover and ensured that the leading names of the pre-independence period were seen in action in Hyderabad. Players like CK Nayudu, Lala Amarnath, Mohammed Nissar and Englishmen such as Jack Hobbs and Bert Sutcliffe played on the fields of Hyderabad back then. There was a man named Syed Mohammad Hadi who represented India in the Davis Cup and also scored the first ever century in the Ranji trophy back in the 1930s. Hadi was talented in so many sports that someone nicknamed him Rainbow Hadi. He had as many skills as the colours of a rainbow. This book chronicles the beginnings and subsequent development of Hyderabad cricket right up to its present time and status. There was an aura about cricket in Hyderabad that was in keeping with the culture and ethos of the city. The lifestyle of Hyderabad was unique in the sense that it reflected the language and attitudes of the people who live in the city. It also had an effect on the way the game was played in this region. There are insights into the lives and careers of players such as M.L. Jaisimha, Mohammed Azharuddin, V.V.S. Laxman, Venkatapathy Raju and many others. Their exclusive comments and interviews with the author are fascinating to read.…
