Description

Explore the complex social and political landscape of Gujarat from 1850 to 1960. This historical study by Routledge examines how language shaped identity and power dynamics during a period of massive change in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. By looking at the debates among the regional elite, this book reveals how language serves as a reflection of power relations across different sections of society. Readers will gain insight into how factors such as nation, ethnicity, region, religion, caste, class, and gender influence social structures. The text investigates the processes through which individuals and groups attempt to define and project themselves within a shifting political environment. This work is an essential resource for those studying South Asian history, sociology, and the evolution of modern Indian identity through the lens of linguistic debate.
