Srirupa Prasad, "Cultural Politics of Hygiene in India, 1890-1940: Contagions of Feeling"
2014 | pages: 153 | ISBN: 1349557730 | PDF | 1,2 mb

This book examines genealogies of contagion in between contagion as microbe and contagion as affect. It analyzes how and why hygiene became authoritative and succeeded in becoming a part of the broader social and cultural vocabulary within the colonialist, anti-colonial, as well as modernist discourses.
