Download or read book Women and Labour in Late Colonial India written by Samita Sen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1999-05-06 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Samita Sen's history of labouring women in Calcutta in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries considers how social constructions of gender shaped their lives. Dr Sen demonstrates how - in contrast to the experience of their male counterparts - the long-term trends in the Indian economy devalued women's labour, establishing patterns of urban migration and changing gender equations within the family. She relates these trends to the spread of dowry, enforced widowhood and child marriage. The book provides insight into the lives of poor urban women who were often perceived as prostitutes or social pariahs. Even trade unions refused to address their problems and they remained on the margins of organized political protest. The study will make a signficant contribution to the understanding of the social and economic history of colonial India and to notions of gender construction.

This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This powerful and timely book explores the inner world of Indian women. it is based on workshops and dialogues which the authors conducted with a very large number of women from all over India and from diverse backgrounds - the poor and the well-to-do, villagers and urbanites, women who work in offices and those who run homes, daughters, wives, mothers and grandmothers. Containing as it does the distilled essence of the innermost feelings of Indian women, this book has an immediacy and a relevance not just for all Indians but for men and women all over the world. The authors trace the journey of women to maturity and the many thresholds they cross on the way. They deal with women's processes of being and becoming and the heritage of folklore, myths and role models which influence and affect these processes. The authors outline five major role models for women which are dominant in Indian society. Tracing the historical loci of these models, the authors argue that even though these models have become out dated given the changing mores and life-styles, Indian women are still expected to conform to them. This clash between role expectations and current realities has created considerable tension for today's woman and is the major source of her pathos. However, while women are at the receiving end of many negative attitudes and constricting stereotypes in Indian society, the authors believe that, in the final analysis, they are often victims of their own restricted vision. They believe that Indian women (as also men) still have to discover a third identity which is neither male nor female but human. This identity encompasses the other two identities and, is a liberating and life-giving force which can revitalise not just women but society at large. This exciting and absorbing book will be of interest to scholars from a wide range of disciplines while being essential reading for all men and women.

Download or read book The Indian Woman written by Janardan Prasad Singh and published by Gyan Books. This book was released on 1996 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our Knowledge of the Ineian woman continues to be quite inadequate and in some ways superficial too. The fact that issues relating t6o womken are quite vast and of bewildering complexity has greatly hampered our understanding pf the wom,enfolk. Keepig this fact in view, experts from different branches of jumanities and social sciences have attempted to focus on certain key issues concerning the Indian woman from tjhe persective of their own discipline. The book is a somewhat new venture in cross-disciplinary studies of the Indian women. As far as possible each contributor has offered an orginal account of the current dialogue on the subject covered giveing sufficient impirical or historical depth. the volume will have achieved its purpose, if it provokes the students and reserchers alike to engage in serious and concerned reflection upon the Indian woman.
