Dear All:

Our next meeting is WEDNESDAY 2 APRIL 2008 from 6.30 to 8.30 p.m. in MIT
E51-195 where we will discuss Sandip Hazareesingh's The Colonial City
and the Challenge of Modernity: Urban Hegemonies and Civic Contestations
in Bombay City 1900-1925. See this post for links to the full text of
the book and supplementary texts which are all digitized for your

Along with the book, there are supplementary readings by Preeti Chopra
on Memonwada, and two earlier articles by Hazareesingh which became
chapters of the book, and are included here for reference. Remember, for
accessing restricted PDFs, the username is "bombayologist" and password
is "urbanmedia". Please RSVP to me by e-mail if you are coming so I can
order food accordingly. 

Best, 


S.K.
