This remarkable volume offers a detailed portrayal of traditional rural life in Bengal, drawn from 61 essays that provide a vivid, authentic account of the Bengali peasantry. L. B. D. Dey’s work delves deep into the social, domestic, and political structures of rural Bengal, exploring the intricacies of caste, the emergence of political awareness, and the challenges faced by the raiyat (peasant) class. The essays collectively form a socio-cultural history of Bengal’s village life, touching upon rituals, beliefs, customs, and the interactions between peasants and zamindars. Rich with vernacular expressions and supported by accurate English translations, this book is an essential sociological and historical resource for understanding rural Indian society during a transformative period.
