Biography
I am interested in exploring how different actors imagined what it meant to lead ‘public’ lives in late 19th-early 20th century eastern India; how and why certain print and oral genres, as well as forms of associational life, gained popularity in this context; and processes of subject-formation and self-fashioning specific to actors’ location within social-linguistic hierarchies.
