Language, Hierarchy, and Identity: Emergence of the Public Sphere in Colonial Western India

By Veena Naregal

Reflecting on the making and implications of colonial bilingualism, this study traces the hierarchical relation between the English vernacular spheres in the Bombay-Pune region from 1830-1881. Naregal argues that this time span represents an important period in the emergence of a public sphere in India.
