- Abstract:
- This article explores the normalization of Ashraf Culture and Colonizers in Majalis un-Nisa. It is argued that the colonial authorities tried at their capacity to keep themselves at length from the colonized physically and disseminated the discourse of colonial difference to present themselves as role models symbolically. While preparing the curricula under them, local scribes could only incorporate this differential discourse in the mirror of their cultural norms and world view.
