Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on Roman Catholic female missionaries in colonial and postcolonial India, the book delves into their unique activism amid contrasting Protestant influences and patriarchal church structures. It recounts their experiences during the Great Revolt of 1857, including hiding in church steeples and providing medical care in Lock Hospitals. Their journeys took them from tribal villages with Jesuits to elite hill stations, all while navigating the era's eugenic and child rescue practices that shaped their mission.
