Introduction -- Small Acts of Rebellion: Women Tell Their Photographs; G.Forbes -- The Litigious Widow: Inheritance Disputes in Colonial North India, 1875-1911; N.V.Prasad -- Wicked Widows: Lawand Faith in Nineteenth Century Public Sphere; T.Sarkar -- Gender, Subalternity and Silence: Recovering Convict Women's Experiences from Histories of Transportation, c. 1780-1857; C.Anderson -- A World of Their Very Own: Religion, Pain and Subversion in Bengali Homes in the Nineteenth Century; A.Ghosh -- Subtle Subversions and Presumptuous Interventions: Reforming Women's Health in Bhopal State inthe Early Twentieth Century; S.Lambert-Hurley -- From the Symbolic to the Open: Women's ResistanceinColonial Maharashtra; P.Anagol.

This book aims at re-examining the issue of b1 severyday resistance b2 s through the lens ofwomen's experiences in colonial South Asia. The overwhelming image of Indian women during the periodis one of passivity, with the exception of some outstanding figures. The attempt in the present volume is to unearth a narrative of deeper and more enduring resistance offered by less extraordinary women in their daily lives. Ina breathtaking collection of essays key scholars in the field bring together evidence from a range of unconventional sources such as women's songs, photographs, and embroidery, but equally from legal records, memoirs, and published work, to present women in far more assertive and/orsubversive roles. The volume is, however, as much about the nature of power as it is about women. Inspired by both subaltern and gender studies, it tries to highlight the complex ways in which power operates within oppressive structures, making any simple valorization - and for thatmatter, theorization - of gendered resistance difficult if not impossible. Contributors: Padma Anagol, Clare Anderson, Geraldine Forbes, Anindita Ghosh, Siobhan Lambert-Hurley, Tanika Sarkar, Nita Varma Prasad.
