About the Book:
This book delves into the politico-cultural imagination that underpinned reformist, nationalist, and women's discourses on widowhood, spanning from the colonial period through to the 1950s. It explores the various ideological frameworks that shaped public perceptions and policies surrounding widowhood, highlighting how these discourses intersected with broader social, political, and cultural movements. By examining the reform efforts aimed at widow remarriage and the changing status of women, the book provides a nuanced understanding of the evolving socio-political landscape during this period in Indian history.
