Examining questions of vernacularity and marginality, Vernacularizing Pasts explores critical concerns underlying history, time-space, modernity, and their associated discourses about Odisha. Illustrating the history of ideas of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, this book brings into focus the hitherto-unexplored literary and political figures of Odisha which ushered in a regional cultural transformation within the broader nationalist movement.
