Description
Hilda: A Story of Calcutta is a novel written by Sara Jeannette Duncan and published in 1898. The story takes place in Calcutta, India during the late 19th century and follows the life of a young Canadian woman named Hilda who has recently moved to the city with her husband, a British colonial administrator.As Hilda navigates the complex social and cultural landscape of Calcutta, she becomes increasingly aware of the injustices and inequalities that exist within the colonial system. She forms close relationships with several Indian characters, including a young woman named Sita who works as her maid and a Bengali doctor named Dr. Biswas.Throughout the novel, Hilda struggles to reconcile her own beliefs and values with the realities of colonial rule and the prejudices of her fellow Europeans. She ultimately becomes involved in a political uprising led by Indian nationalists, which forces her to confront her own privilege and complicity in the colonial system.Hilda: A Story of Calcutta is a powerful exploration of race, gender, and imperialism during the Victorian era. It remains a significant work of literature for its nuanced portrayal of the complexities of colonialism and its impact on both colonizers and colonized peoples.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
