The 'Manly Englishman' and the 'Effeminate Bengali' in the Late Nineteenth Century

Mrinalini Sinha   

Overview

Colonial masculinity places masculinity at the centre of colonial and nationalist politics in the late 19th century in India. Mrinalini Sinha situates the analysis very specifically in the context of an imperial social formation, examining colonial masculinity not only in the context of social forces within India, but also as framed by and framing political, economic, and ideological shifts in Britain.
