This book examines interactions between Britain and India through
the analytical framework of the production and circulation of
knowledge throughout the long eighteenth century. Disciplined
Subjects is one of the first works to analyse the imperial school
curriculum, and the ways in which it shaped and influenced Indian
subjectivity. The author focuses on the endeavours of the colonial
government, missionaries and native stakeholders in determining the
physical, material and intellectual content of institutional
learning in India. Further, the volume compares the changes in
pedagogical practices, and textbooks in schools in Britain and
colonial Bengal, and its subsequent repercussions on the psyche and
identity of the learners. Drawing on a host of primary sources in
the UK and India, this volume will be of great interest to scholars
and researchers of modern history, education, sociology and South
Asian studies.
