Islam And Nationalism In India: South Indian Contexts (Intersections: Colonial And Postcolonial Histories)

This book traces the spectral presence of Islam across narratives to note that difference and diversity, demographic as well as cultural, can be espoused rather than excised or exorcized. Focusing on Malabar and drawing mostly on Malayalam sources, the author investigates the question of Islam from various angles by constituting an archive comprising popular, administrative, academic, and literary discourses. This book will be of interest to scholars of modern Indian history, political science, literary and cultural studies, and Islamic studies.
