Book Description
About the Book: The Making of Modern Hindi: Literary Authority in Colonial North
India
The Making of Modern Hindi examines the politics and processes of making Hindi
modern at a formative moment in Indias history, when British imperialism was at
its peak, and anti-colonial sentiments were on the rise. It centers the figure
of Mahavir Prasad Dwivedi (1864-1938), an enterprising and contentious Hindi
litterateur, and his project of constructing Hindi as a national language with a
modern literature in the early twentieth century. Dwivedis unprecedented
multi-media literary campaign as long-time editor of the Hindi journal Sarasvati
paved the way for Hindis progress into the modern era.
