Leprosy is a neglected topic in the burgeoning field of the history
of medicine and the colonized body. Leprosy in Colonial South India
is not only a history of an intriguing and dramatic endemic
disease, it is a history of colonial power in nineteenth-century
British India as seen through the lens of British medical and legal
encounters with leprosy and its sufferers in south India. Leprosy
in Colonial South India offers a detailed examination of the
contribution of leprosy treatment and legislative measures to
negotiated relationships between indigenous and British medicine
and the colonial impact on indigenous class formation, while
asserting the agency of the poor and vagrant leprous classes in
their own history.
