Designed as a companion to Rabindranath Tagore's Ghare-Baire' (The
Home and the World), the ten essays in this volume cover the novel
in terms of the complexity of colonial modernity. Taking into
account Tagore's critique of religious nationalism and the
historical processes, in which the novel is embedded, the authors
examine questions of gender, nationalism and the novel form. Issues
of gender such as the creations of modern selfhood, the problems of
representing the woman as the nation and the crises of masculinity
are discussed. Similarly, Tagore's critique of Hindu nationalism is
evaluated by its many-sided implications: contextual resonances,
anticolonial vision of social relationships and collective
subjectivity, as well as by its aporias. The book will be of great
value and interest to those studying Indian literature,
post-coloniality, gender representations and nationalism. This work
represents an important contribution to interdisciplinary and
cultural studies of the Indian sub-continent.
