Reseña del libro "Mapping the Path to Maturity: A Connected History of Bengal and the North-East (en Inglés)"

This book delves into varied aspects of the history of Bengal and North east situated within a time frame of more than a hundred years, from the colonial times to the present. The individual essays deal with ideas, literary texts, politics, gender, industries, culture, health, sports and tribal issues relevant to these regions.Probing health issues in the colonial period the volume also explains the development of the modern coal industry on the one hand and the survival of the traditional potter's craft on the other. The significance of traditional healing practices is dwelt upon as also the question of female health and dissemination of knowledge. The pen-picture of the happenings at the bathing ghat reveals the vibrant rural social life of the times. The modernization of the theatre gives a glimpse into the cultural ethos. The institutionalization of sports is examined. Analysis of contemporary cinema throws light on the perception of a woman's position in society. As the reader travels from Bengal to the North-East, the impact of missionary activities on tribal life is revealed. The tribals' search for identity is explored. The issues of peace, security and the interests of independent India are also dissected.This volume would be indispensable for scholars of literature, history, film studies, political science and contemporary studies in South Asia.Please note: Taylor & Francis does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka
