Description

Explore a significant historical perspective with Revival: Child Marriage: The Indian Minotaur (1934). This Routledge Revival edition examines the findings of the 1931 Indian Census Report, which revealed a rise in child marriage and high mortality rates among women. The text provides a deep look into the social issues of the era, including the impacts of premature maternity, midwifery practices, and purdah. This book is divided into two clear sections to help readers understand the complexities of the period. The first part analyzes why previous attempts to address child marriage were ineffective. The second part focuses on potential remedies and social changes. It discusses the call for wider voting rights and increased administrative roles for women, encouraging women to participate in educating public opinion. This work serves as an object-lesson from the past, offering valuable insights for those studying history, social reform, and the evolution of women's rights in India.
