Contemporary Dalit Literature -Hardcover

Jyotirao Phule's remarkable influence was apparent in fields like education, agriculture, caste system, women and widow upliftment and removal of untouchability. He is most known for his efforts to educate women and the lower castes as well as the masses. By the 1960s, Dalit literature saw a fresh crop of new writers like Baburao Bagul, Bandhu Madhav and Shankarao Kharat, though its formal form came into being with the Little magazine movement. The contemporary study of Dalit education detailing economic inequality, culture and values is also delineated well.
