Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rise and Growth of Bombay Municipal Government In the years 1901 and 1902 I had contributed, at the suggestion of its proprietors and publishers, the well-known Messrs. S. M. Ratnagar & Co, a series of articles on the Rise and Growth of Municipal Government in the city of Bombay to the columns of the Bombay Municipal Journal an excellent periodical but unfortunately defunct for some years past. The articles were widely read, and Twas urged by many a friend to have them collected in book form for permanent reference. Owing to a variety of work I was not able to do so till the close of last year when I applied to Messrs. Ratnagar & Co, to make me available their own press files which they very kindly did. I had also their permission to reprint the articles. Meanwhile my other enterprising press friends, Messrs. G. A. Natesan & Co, with their usual courtesy, which I greatly appreciate, offered to print and publish the book. The volume is now before the public. All that I would venture in this place to claim for the book is this. I have endeavoured to collect what may be called the dry bones of our civic history which, it is to be hoped, some historian in the near future will clothe with flesh and blood and produce a living narrative which shall serve as an enduring record for the benefit of future generations of the Bombay Municipal Corporation which has long since been recognised as a model for all India to copy. It is indeed a stately structure, beautiful to behold for the symmetry of its design and the elegance of its proportion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the social history of colonial Bombay in the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, a pivotal time in its emergence as a modern metropolis. Drawing together strands that hitherto have been treated in a piecemeal fashion and based on a variety of archival sources, the book offers a systematic analytical account of historical change in a premier colonial city. In particular, it considers the ways in which the turbulent changes unleashed by European modernity were negotiated, appropriated or resisted by the colonised in one of the major cities of the Indian Ocean region. A series of crises in the 1890s triggered far-reaching changes in the relationship between state and society in Bombay. The city’s colonial rulers responded to the upheavals of this decade by adopting a more interventionist approach to urban governance. The book shows how these new strategies and mechanisms of rule ensnared colonial authorities in contradictions that they were unable to resolve easily and rendered their relationship with local society increasingly fractious. The study also explores important developments within an emergent Indian civil society. It charts the density and diversity of the city’s expanding associational culture and shows how educated Indians embraced a new ethic of ’social service’ that sought to ’improve’ and ’uplift’ the urban poor. In conclusion, the book reflects on the historical legacy of these developments for urban society and politics in postcolonial Bombay. This wide-ranging work will be essential reading for specialists in British imperial history, postcolonial studies and urban social history. It will also be of interest to all those concerned with the comparative history of governance and public culture in the modern city.

Download or read book Bombay Before Mumbai written by Prashant Kidambi and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'City of Gold', 'Urbs Prima in Indis', 'Maximum City': no Indian metropolis has captivated the public imagination quite like Mumbai. The past decade has seen an explosion of historical writing on the city that was once Bombay. This book, featuring new essays by its finest historians, presents a rich sample of Bombay's palimpsestic pasts. It considers the making of urban communities and spaces, the workings of power and the nationalist makeover of the colonial city. In addressing these themes, the contributors to this volume engage critically with the scholarship of a distinguished historian of this frenetic metropolis. For over five decades, Jim Masselos has brought to life with skill and empathy Bombay's hidden histories. His books and essays have traversed an extraordinarily diverse range of subjects, from the actions of the city's elites to the struggles of its most humble denizens. His pioneering research has opened up new perspectives and inspired those who have followed in his wake. Bombay Before Mumbai is a fitting tribute to Masselos' enduring contribution to South Asian urban history
Download or read book History Culture and the Indian City written by Rajnayaran Chandavarkar and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-09-03 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raj Chandavarkar was one of the finest Indian historians of the twentieth century. He died sadly young in 2006, leaving behind a very substantial collection of unpublished lectures, papers and articles. These have now been assembled and edited by Jennifer Davis, Gordon Johnson and David Washbrook, and their appearance will be widely welcomed by large numbers of scholars of Indian history, politics and society. The essays centre around three major themes: the city of Bombay, Indian politics and society, and Indian historiography. Each manifests Dr Chandavarkar's hallmark historical powers of imaginative empirical richness, analytic acuity and expository elegance, and the collection as a whole will make both a major contribution to the historiography of modern India, and a worthy memorial to a major scholar.
