Double-weighted statement

This research output merits double-weighting as it involved the collection and analysis of a considerable and diverse body of archival material on Tagore’s English language writings, frequently working in Indian archives, which are often difficult to access and slow to work through. The book uses those English language sources to critically evaluate the ability of post-colonial theory to provide an adequate account of colonised intellectuals such as Tagore.
