It examines national identity and the legacy of colonialism through a study of comparative and multi ethnic literature, education, English language studies and the role ICT now plays in all of these fields. Contributors look at how the issue of identity can be addressed and understood through food studies, linking food, culture and identity. The volume also considers the timely and very relevant question of gender in Indian society, of the role of the woman, the family and the community in patriarchal contemporary Indian society. Through the lens of literature, culture, gender, politics, this exciting volume pulls together the threads which constitute modern Indian identity. . 606 $aComparative literature 606 $aCultural studies 606 $aEthnology?Asia 606 $aCulture 606 $aGender 606 $aComparative Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/811000 606 $aCultural Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22040 606 $aAsian Culture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411040 606 $aCulture and Gender$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411210 615 0$aComparative literature. 615 0$aCultural studies. 615 0$aEthnology?Asia. 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aGender. 615 14$aComparative Literature. 615 24$aCultural Studies. 615 24$aAsian Culture. 615 24$aCulture and Gender. 676 $a809 702 $aRao Garg$b Shweta$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aGupta$b Deepti$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255079903321 996 $aThe English Paradigm in India$92081434 997 $aUNINA
