Description

Explore the complex relationship between space and identity in this academic study from Manchester University Press. Interiors of Empire: Objects, Space and Identity within the Indian Subcontinent, c. 1800-1947 provides a deep look into the domestic and public environments of the British Raj. By using design history and material culture studies, this work examines how the British and local middle classes occupied their surroundings during this period. The book examines the gap between how these spaces were represented in contemporary discourse and the actual historical evidence of how they were used. It looks at how specific objects and social practices shaped the living and working environments of the era. This study is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of British colonization in India and the way material culture reflects social structures. Whether you are a student of design history or a researcher of colonial studies, this text offers a detailed analysis of the spaces that defined an era.
