Product Description

This book at the genealogy of the discourse of 'Indian theatre' where the category 'Indian' assumes national identity which is self-evident. It finds the roots such grouping in colonial India. It focuses on the transformation of something like the 'grupuscule' or the smallest unit of the group to the 'nation'. In India by the late nineteenth century there was enough discussion in such grupuscules often called samiti-s around certain concepts like desh, sanskriti, sabhyata, etc.
