Cover of idula Nath (University of Western Sydney, Australia) Chakraborty: Being Bengali (ePUB)

Bengal has long been one of the key centres of civilisation and culture in the Indian subcontinent. However, Bengali identity – ‘Bengaliness’ – is complicated by its long history of evolution, the fact that Bengal is now divided between India and Bangladesh, and by virtue of a very large international diaspora from both parts of Bengal. This book explores a wide range of issues connected with Bengali identity. Amongst other subjects, it considers the special problems arising as a result of the division of Bengal, and concludes by demonstrating that there are many factors which make for the idea of a Bengali identity.
