Language, Emotion, and Politics in South India: The Making of a Mother Tongue
Lisa Mitchell
What makes someone willing to die, not for a nation, but for a language? In the 1950s and 1960s, southern India saw a wave of dramatic suicides in the name of the Telugu language. This title traces the colonial-era changes in knowledge and practice linked to language that lay behind these events.
