En-Gendering India: Woman And Nation In Colonial And Postcolonial Narratives
Sangeeta Ray
Offers an innovative interpretation of the role that gender played in defining the Indian state during both the colonial and postcolonial eras. This book examines representations of "native" Indian women and shows how these representations were deployed to advance notions of Indian self-rule as well as to defend British imperialism.
