About the Book
This thought-provoking book delves into the complexities of Mahatma Gandhi's stage fright and shyness, examining them within the broader context of gender politics. It explores the intricate politics of translation and the role of truthfulness in Gandhi’s interpretation of the Gita.
Bringing together life-writing, travel-writing, and postcolonial studies, the book offers a compelling analysis of how the concepts of travel influenced the selfhood articulated by prominent figures like Gandhi, Nehru, and Iqbal in their autobiographical works. The author argues that the themes of journey and self-discovery were central to the life-writing of these influential leaders, providing a nuanced understanding of how they shaped their identities within the socio-political landscape of their time.
This work is an essential read for scholars and students of history, literature, and postcolonial studies, offering fresh insights into the intersection of personal experiences, political identity, and cultural narratives in the lives of key historical figures.
