The question of widow remarriage, which occupied an important place in the social reform movement, was hotly debated in colonial Andhra. Women joined the debate in the early twentieth century. There was a conservative section of women, which bitterly opposed the widow remarriage movement and attacked the social reformers, both women and men. Pulugruta Lakshmi Narasamamba led this group of women. Lakshmi Narasamamba treated widow remarriage (punarvivaham) with contempt and termed it as an affront to the fidelity (pativratyam) of Hindu women. According to her, widow remarriage was equal to ‘prostitution’, and the widows who married again could not be granted the status of kulanganas (respectable or chaste women). Lakshmi Narasamamba’s stand on the question of widow remarriage led to the emergence of a fiery and protracted controversy among women which eventually led to the division of the most famous women’s organization, the Shri Vidyarthini Samajamu. She opposed not only widow remarriage but also post-puberty marriage and campaigned in favour of child marriage. This article describes the whole debate on the widow remarriage question that took place among women. It is based on the primary sources, especially the woefully neglected women’s journals in the Telugu language.
寡妇再嫁问题在殖民地安得拉邦的社会改革运动中占有重要地位,引起了激烈的争论。妇女在20世纪初加入了辩论。有一部分妇女是保守的,她们强烈反对寡妇再婚运动,并攻击男女社会改革家。Pulugruta Lakshmi narasamba领导了这群妇女。Lakshmi narasamba对寡妇再婚(punarvivaham)不屑一顾,称其为对印度教女性忠诚(pativratyam)的侮辱。据她说,寡妇再婚等于“卖淫”,再次结婚的寡妇不能被授予kulanganas(受人尊敬或贞洁的妇女)的地位。Lakshmi narasamba在寡妇再婚问题上的立场在妇女中引发了一场激烈而旷日持久的争议,最终导致了最著名的妇女组织Shri Vidyarthini Samajamu的分裂。她不仅反对寡妇再婚,也反对青春期后的婚姻,并支持童婚。本文描述了发生在妇女中间的关于寡妇再嫁问题的整个争论。它以原始资料为基础,尤其是被严重忽视的泰卢固语妇女期刊。

The Will of the Gods: Patterns of Dream Interpretation in Early Tamil Literature 神的意志:早期泰米尔文学中梦的解释模式

Societies interpreted their dreams in various ways. While dream interpretation has always been an essential part of medical and philosophical discourse, it was only recently that historians began to show certain interest in writing what is called the cultural history of dream interpretation. In fact, dreams, rituals, myths, social memories and consciously constructed histories all share certain similarities since they engage with the past and are expressed in a narrative form. Dream psychology, therefore, may provide a useful analytical tool for historians who are interested in mapping the mental structure of societies. This article is an attempt to unearth the patterns of dream interpretations by analysing the dream expressions found in Tamil literature up to the twelfth century ad. The social attitude towards dreams in the Sangam literature, early Tamil epics and Bhakti literatures is studied in the sociocultural context of their times. One can presume that the literary language of dreams more or less reflected the contemporary cultural beliefs and social practices.
社会对梦的解释各不相同。虽然梦的解释一直是医学和哲学论述的重要组成部分,但直到最近,历史学家才开始对写所谓的梦的解释的文化史表现出一定的兴趣。事实上,梦、仪式、神话、社会记忆和有意识构建的历史都有某些相似之处,因为它们与过去有关,并以叙事的形式表达出来。因此,梦心理学可以为那些对绘制社会心理结构感兴趣的历史学家提供一个有用的分析工具。本文试图通过分析在公元12世纪之前泰米尔文学中发现的梦的表达来揭示梦的解释模式。本文将Sangam文学、早期泰米尔史诗和巴克提文学中对梦的社会态度置于其所处时代的社会文化背景中进行研究。可以推测,梦的文学语言或多或少地反映了当代的文化信仰和社会习俗。

One of the ways scholars and lawyers have understood the institution of property is by thinking of it in terms of legal relationships that people share with each other with respect to a thing. The primary question that animates this article is as follows: If property is to be understood as relationships, what sort of relationships did the evacuee property legislations, a post-Partition legal instrument invented to deal with the problem of abandoned properties left behind in the wake of mass migration, foster among different groups of people with each other and with the state? In order to answer this question, this article explores the newspaper records, parliamentary debates, court orders and archives of the case files of property restoration requests made to the quasi-judicial office of the Custodian of Evacuee Properties present in the National Archives of India.

Violence and Defiance of Authority in Mughal India: A Study of the Shoe Sellers’ Riot of Shahjahanabad 印度莫卧儿王朝的暴力与对权威的反抗——对沙贾哈纳巴德卖鞋者骚乱的研究

N. Haider
In March 1729 ad, the city of Shahjahanabad (Mughal Delhi) was brought to a standstill following a conflict between shoe sellers and state officials. The conflict led to a violent showdown during the Friday congregational prayer in the central mosque of the city (Jami Masjid). The shoe sellers’ riot exposed fissures based on religion, class and politics and posed a challenge to the authority of the Mughal state during the twilight of the Empire. The article is a study of the riot and the riot narratives preserved in three unpublished contemporary works. Together with a discussion of the Ahmedabad riot of 1714 ad, the article examines the nature of conflicts involving civilian population in the cities of Mughal India in the early eighteenth century and the response of political and religious authorities. An important aspect of the incidents studied in the article is the role of religion in organizing group violence even when the cause of the conflict was not necessarily religious. Conversely, cross-community support arising from patronage, class and notions of pride and honour demonstrated that religion was one among many possible forms of identity in Mughal India.
公元1729年3月,由于鞋商和政府官员之间的冲突,沙贾哈纳巴德市(莫卧儿德里)陷入停顿。冲突导致了星期五在该市中心清真寺举行的集会祈祷期间的暴力摊牌。鞋贩骚乱暴露了基于宗教、阶级和政治的裂痕,并在帝国的黄昏时期对莫卧儿国家的权威提出了挑战。本文是对三部未出版的当代作品中保存的暴乱和暴乱叙事的研究。结合对1714年艾哈迈达巴德暴乱的讨论,本文考察了18世纪早期印度莫卧儿王朝城市中涉及平民的冲突的性质,以及政治和宗教当局的反应。本文研究的事件的一个重要方面是宗教在组织群体暴力中的作用,即使冲突的原因不一定是宗教。相反,来自赞助、阶级和骄傲和荣誉观念的跨社区支持表明,宗教是莫卧儿印度许多可能的身份形式之一。

The Question of Dalit Conversion in the 1930s 20世纪30年代达利特皈依的问题
IF 0.5 Q2 HISTORY Pub Date : 2020-08-01 DOI: 10.1177/0257643020956627
Rohit Wanchoo
In June 1936, the Hindu Mahasabha leader B. S. Moonje and the Dalit leader and trenchant critic of Hinduism Dr B. R. Ambedkar jointly proposed mass conversions of the ‘untouchables’ to Sikhism. According to Ambedkar, if the untouchables converted to Sikhism, they would leave the Hindu religion but not Hindu culture. The untouchable converts to Sikhism would escape caste oppression without getting ‘denationalized’. This initiative provoked a major controversy, and leaders as diverse as M. M. Malaviya, Mahatma Gandhi, M. C. Rajah and P. N. Rajabhoj expressed their views on the subject. This article explores what Ambedkar meant by expressions like ‘de-nationalization’ and ‘Hindu culture’. Malaviya’s anxieties about the weakening of the Hindu community because of this initiative, Rajah’s fear that mass conversions could lead to a Sikh–Hindu–Muslim problem at a national level, Gandhi’s emphasis on spiritual values and the voluntary removal of untouchability in a spirit of repentance, and Tagore’s universalist and humanist attitude towards religion are explored. The complex political and intellectual responses of Hindu and Dalit leaders to the proposed mass conversions to Sikhism in the mid-1930s reveal dimensions not often considered in mainstream narratives about Hindu nationalism or Dalit conversions.
1936年6月,印度教大院领袖B. S. Moonje和达利特领袖、印度教尖锐的批评者B. R. Ambedkar博士联合提议,让“贱民”大规模改信锡克教。根据安贝德卡的说法,如果贱民改信锡克教,他们会离开印度教,但不会离开印度文化。皈依锡克教的贱民将逃脱种姓压迫,而不会被“剥夺国籍”。这一倡议引起了巨大的争议,各种各样的领导人,如M. M.马拉维亚、圣雄甘地、M. C.拉贾和P. N.拉贾布吉,都对这个问题发表了自己的看法。本文探讨安贝德卡所说的“去民族化”和“印度教文化”是什么意思。马拉维亚(Malaviya)对印度社区因这一倡议而削弱的焦虑,拉贾(Rajah)担心大规模皈依可能导致全国范围内的锡克教徒-印度教徒-穆斯林问题,甘地(Gandhi)强调精神价值,并以忏悔的精神自愿消除贱民地位,泰戈尔(Tagore)对宗教的普遍主义和人道主义态度。20世纪30年代中期,印度教和达利特领导人对大规模改信锡克教的复杂政治和智力反应,揭示了印度教民族主义或达利特改信的主流叙事中不常考虑的维度。

Gandhi’s Spiritual Politics: Austerity, Fasting and Secularism 甘地的精神政治:紧缩、斋戒和世俗主义

This article attempts to explore the connection between Gandhi’s spiritual quest, of which abstinence was a major component, and his politics. Gandhi was a deeply religious person. His politics, however, was secular in that it had little to do with the politics of religious identity. He would have found the notion of engaging in the politics of religious identity revolting, something that is borne out by his political practice. It was at the moment of the greatest crisis during the final phase of the anti-colonial struggle that he articulated his position with great clarity, and then went on to give it meaning through his presence in the countryside of Noakhali, and the refugee camps of Delhi. The influences of the social milieu of his early life in Saurashtra, and the colonial condition, shaped his world view in significant ways. The concrete everyday experiences of his early life are useful for comprehending his ideas about austerity as a moral ideal. There was a close link between austerity and the endeavour to achieve control over the palate. Besides, the story of his long association with his childhood friend Sheikh Mehtab is revisited, in the light of recent research, to see how it might allow a better understanding of this link.
本文试图探讨甘地的精神追求(禁欲是其中的一个主要组成部分)与他的政治之间的联系。甘地是个笃信宗教的人。然而,他的政治是世俗的,因为它与宗教身份的政治没有什么关系。他会发现参与宗教认同政治的概念令人反感,他的政治实践证明了这一点。正是在反殖民斗争最后阶段最严重的危机时刻,他非常清楚地表达了自己的立场,然后通过他在诺阿卡里农村和德里难民营的出现,赋予了它意义。他早年在梭罗什特拉生活的社会环境和殖民条件的影响,在很大程度上塑造了他的世界观。他早年生活中具体的日常经历有助于理解他将节俭作为一种道德理想的想法。节俭与努力控制味觉之间有着密切的联系。此外,根据最近的研究,他与童年好友谢赫·梅赫塔布的长期交往的故事被重新审视,看看它如何能更好地理解这种联系。

The Improbability of a Temple: Hindu Mobilization and Urban Space in the Delhi Shiv Mandir Agitation of 1938 寺庙的不可能性:1938年德里湿婆庙运动中的印度教动员和城市空间
IF 0.5 Q2 HISTORY Pub Date : 2020-08-01 DOI: 10.1177/0257643020956624
Deepasri Baul
The 1920s and 1930s were decades of intense religious polarization and violence in many parts of British India. These decades were also especially empowering ones for Hindu nationalist organizations in Delhi. So, it rankled Hindu leaders that Delhi’s built environment had a dearth of Hindu sacred structures to attest to their power, on account of the city’s past status as a Mughal capital. Instead, transitory spatial markers of local veneration made up its somewhat ephemeral Hindu sacred geography. The Shiv Mandir agitation of 1938 was a collective attempt by Hindu volunteers to forcibly occupy government land in a prominent arena of the city as a symbolic restitution of this historical inequality. The agitation itself had two parts—first, the occupation of a plot of land as a temple and, second, the aggregation of legal arguments supporting ownership of the plot for the Hindu public. By combining these two strategies, the Shiv Mandir agitation laid out the political and legal preconditions necessary for the production of a more conspicuous and enduring material landscape of organized Hindu religiosity in the city.

20世纪20年代和30年代是英属印度许多地区宗教两极分化和暴力的几十年。这几十年对德里的印度教民族主义组织来说也是特别有利的。因此,由于德里过去是莫卧儿王朝的首都,德里的建筑环境中缺乏印度教神圣建筑来证明他们的权力,这让印度教领袖们非常恼火。取而代之的是,当地崇拜的短暂空间标记构成了其稍为短暂的印度教神圣地理。1938年的Shiv Mandir骚乱是印度教志愿者的集体尝试,他们试图强行占领城市一个重要场所的政府土地,作为对这种历史不平等的象征性恢复。骚动本身有两个部分:第一,占领一块土地作为寺庙;第二,聚集了支持印度公众对这块土地所有权的法律论据。通过结合这两种策略,湿婆庙的骚动为在城市中产生一个更引人注目和持久的有组织的印度教宗教的物质景观奠定了必要的政治和法律先决条件。通过这一过程,印度教民族主义组织巩固了自己作为寺庙和寺庙土地的最终公共监护人的地位。这是一个强大的角色,它在很大程度上通过控制城市主要房地产而获得了声望。

These decades were also especially empowering ones for Hindu nationalist organizations in Delhi. So, it rankled Hindu leaders that Delhi’s built environment had a dearth of Hindu sacred structures to attest to their power, on account of the city’s past status as a Mughal capital. Instead, transitory spatial markers of local veneration made up its somewhat ephemeral Hindu sacred geography. The Shiv Mandir agitation of 1938 was a collective attempt by Hindu volunteers to forcibly occupy government land in a prominent arena of the city as a symbolic restitution of this historical inequality. The agitation itself had two parts—first, the occupation of a plot of land as a temple and, second, the aggregation of legal arguments supporting ownership of the plot for the Hindu public. By combining these two strategies, the Shiv Mandir agitation laid out the political and legal preconditions necessary for the production of a more conspicuous and enduring material landscape of organized Hindu religiosity in the city. Through this process, Hindu nationalist organizations consolidated themselves as the ultimate public custodians of temples and temple land. This was a powerful role that drew its prestige in good measure from control over prime urban property.","PeriodicalId":44179,"journal":{"name":"Studies in History","volume":"171 S378","pages":"230 - 250"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2020-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/0257643020956624","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72407607","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
