Overview
First published in 1882, Tarabai Shinde's A Comparison between Women and Men is an invaluable first-hand source for the way colonial rule shaped Indian women's and gender history. Beautifully translated here by Rosalind O'Hanlon, her text is joined by a substantial interpretive essay linking it to broader issues in the Indian women's movement.
Includes English translation of Strsi-purusha tulansa, by Tsarsabsasi GSinde.
