by Kathryn Hansen
Part of the Anthem South Asian Studies series
Hardback
- Information
Description
The vanished world of India’s late-colonial theatre provides the backdrop for the autobiographies in this book.
The life-stories of a quartet of early Indian actors and poet-playwrights are here translated into English for the first time.
These men were schooled not in the classroom but in large theatrical companies run by Parsi entrepreneurs.
Their memoirs, replete with anecdote and humor, are as significant to the understanding of the nationalist era as the lives of political leaders or social reformers.
