Description

This scholarly work examines the pioneering travel writings of Bengali women during the colonial period, revealing how these authors challenged prevailing stereotypes and forged emancipatory identities through their journeys. The book assembles travelogues documenting travels to the West, Aryavarta, and Japan, exploring the intersections of power, indigeneity, and representations of self and other. These transgressive narratives of Bengali women demonstrate their complex personal and socio-political histories, offering fresh perspectives on colonial India's social and cultural landscape. Published by Routledge, this critical examination of 19th and early 20th-century travel literature provides essential insights into how women writers resisted the 'circumscribed native woman' trope through their own voices and experiences.
