商品詳細
解説
In this ground breaking study, Swapna M. Banerjee examines the construction of national identity in colonial Bengal, through the lens of employer-servant relationships. Drawing on a wide range of literary and official sources, Banerjee reveals that domestic politics played a central role in the articulation of caste-class divides. Making new claims for the political influence of women and domestic workers, this is a scholarly and innovative study of a previously neglected chapter in Indian social history.
