Reviews

'A remarkable study of political aesthetics, Eve Tignol's book reveals the shifting world of affect and emotion within which Muslim identity was reformulated in colonial India. It represents a real achievement.' Faisal Devji, University of Oxford 'Eve Tignol's theoretically sophisticated and beautifully laid out monograph is both an intellectual and an aesthetic feast. She explores the many shapes grief went through between 1857 and the 1940s, weaving together questions from the history of emotions and emotional practices with a close reading of poetry, showing a rare sensibility to language.' Margrit Pernau, Max Planck Institute for Human Development
