Description

Beyond Macaulay offers a radical reexamination of Indian education during the early colonial period from 1780 to 1860, drawing on archival evidence and data from 16,000 indigenous schools. This comprehensive history challenges the widely accepted narrative that British administration imposed English language and modern education on Indians, revealing instead that indigenous education was written, formal, and egalitarian rather than oral, informal, and Brahmin-centric. Published by Routledge India, the volume includes 41 previously unused Educational Minutes of Macaulay, enabling readers to understand his educational philosophy and its actual impact. The book integrates rich archival sources with quantitative analysis to provide a nuanced account of educational transformation in colonial India, making it essential reading for historians, scholars of education, and anyone interested in how colonial policies actually shaped-or failed to shape-Indian learning systems.
