Peasants and Monks in British India (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by University of California Press, Berkerley, 1996
ISBN 10: 0520200616 ISBN 13: 9780520200616
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In this compelling social history, William R. Pinch tackles one of the most important but most neglected fields of the colonial history of India: the relation between monasticism and caste. The highly original inquiry yields rich insights into the central structure and dynamics of Hindu society-insights that are not only of scholarly but also of great political significance.Perhaps no two images are more associated with rural India than the peasant who labors in an oppressive, inflexible social structure and the ascetic monk who denounces worldly concerns. Pinch argues that, contrary to these stereotypes, North India's monks and peasants have not been passive observers of history; they have often been engaged with questions of identity, status, and hierarchy-particularly during the British period. Pinch's work is especially concerned with the ways each group manipulated the rhetoric of religious devotion and caste to further its own agenda for social reform. Although their aims may have been quite different-Ramanandi monastics worked for social equity, while peasants agitated for higher social status-the strategies employed by these two communities shaped the popular political culture of Gangetic north India during and after the struggle for independence from the British. Tackles one of the most important but most neglected fields of the colonial history of India: the relation between monasticism and caste. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Why did the nonviolent Meerut mutiny of 1857 in India explode into a violent military revolt? Breaking new ground on the events of May 10, William Pinch reexamines the evidence, shifting our focus toward the identity of female participants and their actions in the hours before the revolt began. Drawing upon a wide range of sources, including Hindi folksongs, military records, police reports, literary fiction, and Urdu memoir, he creates snapshots from the perspective of key figures to uncover the social and emotional world of the military 'cantonment' and its rural hinterland. By foregrounding the lives of ordinary 'military women' and 'their men' - the Indian sepoys who peopled the revolt - Pinch challenges conventional narratives and guides readers through the literary and historiographical echoes of the fateful decision to take up arms against the British.

South Asian studies at Virginia/William R. Pinch. 17. Bibliography of Walter Hauser/Philip McEldowney. Index. The present volume springs out of a festschrift conference to honor the career of Walter Hauser Professor Emeritus of History at the University of Virginia and pioneer scholar in the study of Indian Peasant Movements. Because Hauser's work focuses on Bihar and the peasant leader Swami Sahajanand Saraswati some of the authors such as the late Arvind Narayan Das Christopher Hill and Sho Kuwajima are concerned directly with peasant politics in Bihar. Other authors such as Harry Blair Majid Siddiqi Harold Gould and the late James R. Hagen Contrast Agrarian History and Politics in Bihar to other parts of India. A third group including Stuart Corbridge Ron Herring and Ruhi Gover investigate related questions in Agrarian History and politics from regions formally outside of Bihar. A fourth group of authors including Peter Robb Ajay Skaria and William R. Pinch examine culture religion and meaning that inform (and are informed by) peasant politics. A fifth set of authors Frederick H. Damon Peter Gottschalk and Mathew Schmalz provide ethnographic context. Damon takes readers from Bihar to Melanesia and many points in between with a focus on ethno botany over three millennia Gottschalk and Schmalz provide a closely detailed examination of a Bihari Village focusing in particular on the problem of religion. Importantly these authors structure their investigations around a reversal of the ethnographer's gaze. In this spirit of reflexive reversal the volume concludes with a reflection on the project of South Asian studies in the United States by Hauser himself focusing on (but not limited to) his experiences at the University of Virginia. 504 pp.
