Prompted by the prevalence of ‘the revolutionary’ in Indian political, historical and literary worlds, Revolutionary Lives explores the radical and cosmopolitan nature of anticolonialism in early twentieth century India through a biographical lens. The volume draws together ten eminent researchers from India, Europe, Australia and the US to analyse the lives of anticolonial activists, both unknown and infamous, to ask: how should we read claims to ‘the revolutionary’ in both contemporary and historical contexts? |
