About the Book

Ashutosh Mukhopadhyay, who in his brief lifespan of just sixty years, orchestrated a remarkable cultural and social reform for the Bengali community, was a distinguished judge, educator, and reformer. While his contributions to Bengali culture and society are well known, until now, no comprehensive and well-structured biography has been written about his life and works. This book fills that gap by compiling important and authentic materials about Ashutosh’s life drawn from various Bengali newspapers and magazines.

The editor, Baridbaran Ghosh, holds an M.A., Ph.D., and D.Litt from Burdwan University, and has served as a professor with extensive experience in teaching and research. With over a hundred authored and edited books and regular contributions to leading Bengali journals and newspapers, he has made significant contributions to Bengali literature and culture. In this volume, he provides a detailed and multifaceted exploration of Ashutosh’s life and reforms, making it an invaluable resource for Bengali readers.

Awarded the Sarad Puraskar and several other honors, this book is an essential addition for students, researchers, and lovers of Bengali literature and cultural history.
