Members of the middle class in colonial Malabar left behind a
copious amount of writings. These are to be found, among other
places, in magazines, autobiographies and diaries. This book
explores the social history of the middle class in the region
during the British period on the basis of these writings in
combination with archival sources. It delves into how they
conceptualized domesticity, forged new friendships cutting across
caste, and sometimes, even racial lines, and the new forms of
leisure they envisaged. The author also analyses the dilemmas the
group faced as it responded to the changes unleashed by colonial
modernity at their work places, in the public sphere, and inside
homes, where they desperately clung on to tradition even while
accepting much of what the West had to offer. Please note: Taylor
& Francis does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India,
Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
