Textul de pe ultima copertă
This edited volume brings together a range of scholars to reflect on the varied ways in which caste is manifested and experienced in social life. Each chapter draws on different methods and approaches, while all consider lived experiences and experiential narrations. Considering Guru and Sarukkai’s path-breaking work on ‘Experience, Caste and the Everyday Social’ (2019), this volume applies the insights of the theories to multiple settings, issues and communities. Unique to this volume, Brahmin and other dominant castes' experiences are considered, rather than simply focusing on the lives of oppressed castes (Dalits). Analysis of cross-caste friendships or romances and marriages bring out the intimate and ingrained aspects of caste, and therefore, taken together, the contributions in this volume offer rich insights into caste and its consciousness within the framework of everyday experiences.

"This book brings new insights on the interrelational aspects of caste and untouchability, social and psychological, capturing inner most psychological harm, hurt, anguish, pain and humiliation faced by untouchables in normal daily interaction with higher caste, which is most difficult to capture. This book, however, does it is fairly successfully and makes a valuable addition to the theme which scholars will find extremely insightful."
