Hindu Revivalism in Bengal C. 1872-1905 Some Essays in Interpretations

This study breaks fresh ground by way of discussing two important social controversies in nineteenth-century Bengal, namely, the Brahmo Marriage Bill and the Age of Consent Bill. The period under study covers the thirty years between the Brahmo Marriage Bill and the start of the anti-Partition agitation.
