The World of the Weaver in Northern Coromandel (c.1750-c.1850)

P. Swarnalatha (Author)

Synopsis This study is essentially an attempt to examine, at the level of the locality, the 'total history' of the weavers in the Northern Coromandel region during a period when India was being incorporated into the modern world economic system. The concept of totality is not invoked here in the Rankean sense of collecting all the â€˜factsâ€™, but rather in the Annaliste sense of recognizing the necessity of adopting a holistic perspective, and of perceiving the integral nature of the several interesting spheres in which the weavers functioned, namely the cultural, the economic, the political, and the social.
