In the patriarchal society of northern India, women’s lives were shaped by the expectations of the male-dominated universe, particularly reflected in household chores and domestic responsibilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"691\" data-end=\"1054\"\u003eThrough an insightful examination of these social structures, the book challenges traditional perceptions of women's roles and provides a deeper understanding of the ways in which their identities were formed and shaped by patriarchal norms. This work offers an essential perspective for those interested in the history and sociology of women in colonial India.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ADITYA PRAKASHAN Indological Publishers \u0026 Booksellers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50088851964208,"sku":"DRG.AdityaPrakashan _9789352904044","price":1595.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/9789352904044.jpg?v=1756299778","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/bn\/products\/in-pursuit-of-playfulness-the-girl-child-woman-and-nineteenth-century-india","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
