A Postcolonial School In A Modern World, Nita Kumar, Som Majumdar
A Postcolonial School In A Modern World, Nita Kumar, Som Majumdar
CMC Faculty Publications and Research
This essay is about a school, taken not only as an educational project, but as an active historical intervention. A discussion of the school helps us to interpret the history of education, and perhaps all history, with new insight; to understand the nature of modernity in a provincial city; and to fashion an approach to both theory and practice that could be called postcolonial.

De L’Aliénation À La Libération, Alexie Tcheuyap
De L’Aliénation À La Libération, Alexie Tcheuyap
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Libraries Faculty and Staff Scholarship and Research
In the 1830s, at the dawn of mass-market publishing, J. & J. Harper of New York began publishing several libraries, including Harper’s Family Library and Harper’s School District Library.
