Description
Some extracts from reviews:
'Subaltern Studies, a series of fragmentary explorations of popular mentality and politics in particular places and at particular times. has served its purpose - a very useful purpose - and it is to be hoped that it will encourage broader and more long-ranging works giving a connected history of the lower classes.'
The Statesman
'. this is an important book, a book that makes a break. which is needed.'
The Hindustan Times
'Much of the discussion regarding Indian history writing in the groves of academia is a dialogue or polemic with Subaltern Studies. Historians are identified. according to whether one is a 'subaltern' or not.'
